Ours has come up to with in 1 week of our completion date...and they actually LAUGHED at us when we expressed concern that we wouldn't be in by February...it's now…

Yay!!!!
Our handover is finally next thursday...better late than never i suppose!

COngratulations!!!
After our long wait it seems we may be having hand over the same week

It so does depend on your SS and ours is the worst! Heard today that they will have us in in three weeks!! We'll see!

Congratulations!! It must be such a great feeling!
I'm more of a lurker here than a poster but have been following your thread as we too…

ours has been like that for about a month in the master bedroom...driving me bonkers!

That is such a pain. My friend is having the same issues with her bank and builder at the moment. Hope it all works out for you guys!

We signed our contracts the 8th of may and site start was the 23rd July.
We'll be in just after christmas

They seem to have been slowing down on our place already

This is us too

Our site costs were just under 20,000 but we are on quite a slope I think it's over 2.5 m

revilldc, are you still around? Not cool to try and instill anxiety with Merticon customers without substantiating it Like

All M homes in our area have plastered garages... i know ours is and we're not paying any extra for it

We're using brown terrain bricks and a magnum roof Good taste!!!
It is just terrible...my patience wore very thin at that point!

It was ridiculous how long it took us to get formal approval! We had to get an extension on our land not once, but three times because of the bank!…

Just be careful as M have issued all the invoices before the work has been completed...in the case of the slab the week before. I don't think that is right…

Nup...but have tried calling and e mailing to no avail, i keep getting messages and no answers. Very frustrating. We're almost finished the third stage and have had not one…

I'm building the talbot with metricon in craigieburn too...mt ridley.
ha ha ha ha I haven't heard from our SS ONCE yet and we're almost finished bricking, in fact i've only…

Unfortunately this can happen. Our builder told us that it can happen from time to time (although our sales rep told us she had only come across one other case).…

Thanks for that! this is great information to pass on!

Just to clarify she has a deposit, but needs to give it back to her parents once the grant comes through if that makes any sense.

That's what i thought too, i know we did ours through our Mortgage broker but she said that the builder was going to do it... i don't know!

Cool thanks! She said that the builders were the ones lodging the FHOG forms anyway so i'm sure they know what they're saying.

Does it have to be the actual build contract though? they've told her they won't have that ready but as long as she signs the prelim???

We've got our frame up, and the tiles on the roof have been done! If you look to the top of wisteria (it goes around in a bend) you will…

Hi there,
My friend is in the process of looking into building a house but is only able to do so if she gets the full 32 000 grant and she…

I love it!
But i am biased, we've chosen the same colour, and our bricks are very similar as well

Oh we're stage 47 too. We originally were going for a lot on Ben loman but we're now on wisteria ave, but right up the top

it's frustrating as it says we will not recieve invoices til completion but the contractors are telling our csc that the work has been completed when it hasn't and thus…

Hi guys,
I was wondering if anyone else out there is having problems with the builders issuing invoices before the work is complete, or in some stages before it has been…
