6/12 - Well, we've finally decided on a builder.

We've finally decided on a builder and on Friday the 30th of November I visited the PD display centre and put down some hard earned cash. After months of driving around Melbourne's outer suburbs and masses of comparison spreadsheets we have chosen the Porter Davis Cremorne 41.
We loved the design (obviously) and think the kids, once they are old enough, will come to appreciate it too.














We checked out a host of different builders and nearly completed a full circle back to PD. Whilst some builders were pretty flexible, we were amazed how some were not so inclined. Our PD Consultant 'G' has been really accomodating, as we have hammered her with questions on different options for this and that, some of them a necessity and others a luxury (which, if we can squeeze it in the budget we will).

I must make a quick mention of the friendly folk on the Homeone website (http://www.homeone.com.au/) who have opened our eyes as to what to expect on our journey and who without them I would never have started this Blog. Countless hours have been spent following the forums and taking in all of the highs and lows associated with building. Some of the crappy builders out ther leave a lot to be desired!
