Village Square Stage 14 & 15 Edmondson Park

Hi Oliver1989G,
Why are there going to be further delays and did they mention how long for? Was that the final walkthrough you've had? We had our handover around about 2…

Do plans normally suggest if retaining walls should be done? Would anyone know in what instances a fence would also need to be installed with a retaining wall? Is it…

Hi Priscia2104,
Thanks for your reply! Yes we ended up contacting Firstyle to ask why we were being sent an invoice without a slab, especially since they were already sending us…

Can anyone share their experience with Firstyle in regards to payments and invoices.
We have been invoiced for Stage 1 which is the completion of the slab? However we have driven…

We were also offered around $160 per downlight from Clipsal, however we were credited the baton lights so ended up being around $105. It also depends on how…

Haha surprised in a good way. There was a lot of styles and sizes which were included; I would say around of half the show room . We would've…

Just double check that is where your builder is getting the tiles from and ask the salesperson which tile selection is included with…

Same. We had a look at the tile showroom in Wetherill Park just to see what we had to choose from.
The salesperson showed us what we could select from.…

Yes I am hoping that they would give us a bit more notice. I think the construction manager just emphasising they didn't want us to slow down the progress. …

Congrats! Yes, they are probably getting a head start. The 'official' construction date if most probably for contract purposes I am thinking? As they need to complete the house within…

Oh what?! As in you have never had any appointment with your supervisor for any stage?
We were told we will get five appointments onsite with the supervisor, frames, before…

Would anyone be able to give us an indication of the notice period the site inspector gives you before your appointment after the completion of each stage. One of the…

Hi, yeah been long time lurker haha. We aren't located on the same blocks in stage 14 and 15 but a couple of blocks away bit closer to Dalmatia ave.…

Congratulations! We are in the same boat!
When the builder references the 'official' start date of construction is that more for contract purposes. Construction works could technically start before that date,…

I guess it really depends on your bank and the type of loan you are going with and how your loan manager sets up the loan for you. With…

Did anyone here also hire a building inspector? We are about to start construction and tossing up if it would be worth it?
If so, did Firstyle have any issues…

We were also concerned with site costs before purchasing however the salesperson we dealt with at Firstyle had assured us that they will cover all site costs etc.…

Yes the price quoted essentially the same before you submit all your upgrades and variations. However, in saying that the price of all our final variations added about $20K onto…
