    And yet they still market it as "low maintenance and high quality" ~ What a joke

    Also, never heard of pouring concrete straight onto the ground like that!

    The developers must be in such a hurry to take your money that they are cutting as many corners as possible!

    I guess for $520,000 - $700,000 + dollars you shouldn't be expecting much!

    It is a sign of the times in Auckland when that price range is considered cheap for a new home. With the current inflated land prices, I guess some developers try to cut corners in the quality of building. Let's hope Auckland City use some of their large levies and fees to bolster their compliance checks.

    We're not the only country that's not building enough houses.

    Sounds like Singapore and Australia are seeing a downturn in the property market

    Could it be that a wave is heading our way :S
