We are building with Peterson Homes (United Building Group) They are based in Hallam which is about 1/2 hour drive from Mornington. Their show home is at Valerie Close, Mount Martha, which is just just the other side of Benton's road. So far everything has been great, keeping fingers crossed . Seems they have a good reputation around here for building a good house.
