Looking to build my first home in the not so distant future. Anyone got any experiences, good or bad, or recommendations.

The pre-designed homes seem the easiest and cheapest option for me, like Jalcon and Sovereign, plus they look pretty good. Sovereign offers single storey homes for about $1000/sqm & 1200/sqm for double.

I'm a little wary of some of these outfits though, Mitchell Homes is one in particular I've heard a few horror stories on.
