Was that for the Foxtel cabling to be laid to the unit block?
When our townhouse complex was built it did not have the cabling needed for foxtel. We had a number of enquiries from residents and got quotes that came in at about the $10,000 mark. As most residents were not interested, we decided against this.
We gave owners permission to install satellite dishes on their roof instead. Then those who wanted it organised it and paid for the installation, which was much cheaper than getting the cabling in place. This is OK for a townhouse complex with each unit having their own roof and installation can be done without dishes being too obvious (we do state that dishes must be the standard sized Foxtel dishes, not those the size of NASA dishes).
In a unit complex you would probably have to have a dish on each balcony.
