We all love a bargain, that irresistible price that feels too hard to refuse.

But stopping to take the time to find the real value of what's being offered with what is being asked is the more important understanding when considering granny flat purchase.

Find a builder that will take the time to explain the process and what is included, in detail. And importantly what is NOT included.

Don't be afraid to ask questions.

Soil testing is a process that provides detailed information about the ground so engineers can design suitable footings to support the proposed structure.

Allowable bearing pressure is a term used, determined from soil testing, and tells the engineer the footings dimensional parameters.

Can you believe this is a Granny Flat?

Its open. Its light. Has two bedrooms. Full kitchen. Comfortable dining and living space. Seperate toilet. Separate laundry. Even a bathtub.

Best of all no stairway to a 2nd level. And with all the wet areas close together, there is no waiting for hot water!

For some, downsizing to this means less maintenance, less cleaning, less walking down long corridors and that translates to more time for important things in life - family, hobbies travel.

The project is broken down to different stages of construction and a progress payment is made for each of those stages based on the value of the work completed.

Before construction starts, the first payment is a deposit, 10% in NSW.

There are specific payment terms to follow which is important for adhere to, to keep the progress of the job moving forward towards completion.

Once the final payment has been recieved, then the builder will hand over the keys and all the complience certificates required to recieve the occupation certificate.

This is how the money works in a fixed price building contract and is an indication of the quality level of the builders business management.
