My hubby and I went down to Darwin yesterday. The ID was very patient with us and we spent about 3 hours with her talking on the design and quotation. She understand that we have a tight budget and she did not try to push us to get non-essential things. She also advice us because we have a tight budget, we should do things that are essential first (like hacking) and non-essential (carpentry work like wardrobe) could wait till when we have more money to do it.
One thing I would have to say is that, as our is a resale flat, I would still feel more at ease if only she could come to our flat to take a look to ensure that there wont be any additional costs like more electricity points needed etc.
honeyclub, could you PM your ID name to me please? Thank you.
