This is my first time writing a negative review publicly. I guess it will get on your nerves too after receiving 5 delays on your build with no compensation at all! The settlement was on 14 Jan 2021. As it is a pre-designed house and land package (and land already registered) we were expecting to receive the build to take around 6 months. However, according to the latest EOT (Extension of Time), it is now due to complete on 10 Jan 2022, provided there are no further EOTs. It should have served as a warning to me when the contract under the special conditions was full of clauses of extension exemptions

Be weary of this builder. They will tell you a price which will entice you to sign up for preliminary work with them and once you have transferred the funds they will tell you that due to price pressures the previous price they told you about will need to increase. During my consultation with multiple other builders none of them came back to change any previously advised price so not sure if this is Silkwoods standard practice to entice clients or not. What will end up happening is that you will lose the original deposit for the preliminary work as the revised price will not be competitive with
