    I dunno, why don't you tell us? What do you think? Location of property would be a good start. Do some research first before asking silly questions.

    Sounds extremely cheap.....think average these days is closer to $2K, dependent on the build quaility.

    I'd say it's well north of 2K per sqm & climbing. Rising construction costs are also contributing to rising house prices. If anyone can do it at 1k they are performing a miracle, or using a different form of accounting.

    Your golden homes are also around this price, and they include double glazing

    How long is a bit of string?. Silly questions deserve silly answers. I take it the plans and consents are included in this price but not the block of land.[?] Macdunk
