We had a PA of 85lm and we used about 72 from memory. It's luck of the draw with the block. Building Nu Caprice, nearly complete.

Ok...so none of the delays are the builders fault. People need to be careful who they criticise online. Getting into shaky legal territory.

Yes, pretty standard in Oak Tree Estate. It's very frustrating but we just paid the $800 for a Sydney Water certifier to approve.

The number one influence on choosing our builder(provincial) was design. You cannot change the floor plan of your house easily once it's built, so we chose Provincial because they had…

Just waiting for finance and commencement letter. Wanted a slab before Christmas but looking unlikely now.
Trying to deal with another builder dumping bricks on our land too.

Don't know the WSC number, it's dealt with through the builder.

Has anyone had any trouble getting building approvals from Sydney Water? We have been told that it looks like our building plans won't affect any Sydney Water infrastructure but…

Hi SNG
There's been quite a lot of discussion on the forum regarding BAL reports. Essentially you can get someone to do it for you for anywhere from $300 to $750…

Hello neighbours,
As has been mentioned previously on this forum a number of times, EVERY INDIVIDUAL block of land needs to have a CERTIFIED BAL rating. You will not be…

We are in Mebbin road. I did ours myself, cost $220 to submit with council and got a BAL rating of LOW.

This question has been answered a number of times already on this forum. The BAL rating must be certified for every individual block. You can do the process yourself or…

Hi there,
Interested to know whether the progress payments in the contract are standard and whether anyone has had legal advice to change them for any reason?
Cheers

Interested to know from everyone who has signed a building contract what you scheduled payments are in your contract? Is there a standard percentage as the build progresses?
Thanks

Hi guys,
I'm interested to know if the developer allowed your builder onto the land prior to registration to do site inspection and soil/bore hole tests and if so how long…

Hi there,
Anyone got any idea how long before registration a developer will allow a builder on site for a contour inspection and soil testing, if at all?

Hi guys. I would be VERY cautious about signing with a builder when there is not yet any assurance that registration will happen before the sunset date...

Hi all,
A friend of mine brought his drone over to take some shots of the block...shows the trees that have been removed so far.
