Owners Termination Right Special Condition
Making sure you actually get the trade certificates as and when the work is done is probably more important than this special condition.
Re sale Deed in a completed House and Land Package
Well have a more detailed look at the obligations being passed onto you then. Sometimes it's not just about your house, but what's happening around your house that's being undertaken…
Re sale Deed in a completed House and Land Package
No point wasting your time. Vendor won't agree. Your solicitor probably hasn't seen enough of these.
Focus on other things like building timeframe / constraints would be time better spent.
I need the forum's help to find a new designer
Thanks for the insight. Pretty surprised that anyone would do this to a regular customer. They are probably in a comfort zone with you for too long.
Good of…
I need the forum's help to find a new designer
Would you mind elaborating why the last one is no longer a fit for the business? PM if you prefer. Much appreciated.

Polytec timber look galleries
Interested in getting either the Polytec Boston Oak or Palace Peak for kitchen cabinets.
Looking at the Boston Oak ones, it appears that the colour varies significantly between different projects:
Wisdom Homes - Construction Delays is it worth the hassle?
In fairness nobody gave a crap about the ACCC and the gag clauses continued in the pro forma templates of a few other builders after the ACCC took on Wisdom,…
Brick Elevator truck hit and run
Yeah, identifiable only for those who already know the logo, lol
Brick Elevator truck hit and run
I thought this is a logo/sticker of some sort?
Brick Elevator truck hit and run
Slightly off the usual topics...but this truck carrying a brick elevator was involved in a hit and run this morning at around 9.20AM at the cross section of Pennant Hills…
Unfair Contract Terms- ACCC new penalties
The ACCC has had a few go's on the volume builders on the standard form HIA contracts under the UCT regime and have not found many of the special conditions…
Clarendon Boston or Saratoga
the stair balustrades? There is nothing special about these and I imagine literally every stair installer will be able to do this.
Wisdom Homes - Construction Delays is it worth the hassle?
Perhaps have a look at your contract first and see what the construction period and the liquidated damages for delay are, and take it from there.
Allura Homes in Liquidation
This might make the news for tomorrow's newspaper...

I thought Allura Homes, despite its shortcomings and various negative feedbacks lately, has been ramping up its…
Private inspector charge by builder
I wouldn't play the ACCC cards.
Everyone knows how the building contracts are one-sided favouring the builder but the ACCC has had virtually no bones to pick from those standard…
Millbrook Homes in liquidation
Wasn't Elderton Homes gone late 2022, and since Millbrook was just a high end spin off, this is hardly a surprise.
CDC Garage Allowance (NSW)
gross floor area has the same meaning as it has in the Standard Instrument. However, in Part 3, 3B, 3C or 3D it means the sum of the floor area…
HIA HOME CONTRACT
Any builder that starts with 45% interest rate and $5 per day LD should be an immediate write-off in my books.
But I guess you found that out way…
Sliding Doors
These sliding doors are fairly common in Japan but are not always featured in Australian homes.
The first one is sliding glass door and instead of sliding behind another glass frame,…
Building & Developing A Duplex In North Ryde
Are you getting the horizontal line in the stair wall patched up and painted? For me it kind of destroys the cleanliness of the 4 vertical LED strips.
A Hebel KDR project we finished this year
Looks good. What construction method / extra waterproofing, if any, was applied for the parapet walls?
Future knock-down-rebuild. What is worth to do today?
I wouldn't do either if I were you:
1. Are you intending to do a survey before you put in the new fence? If not, your land survey for the…
Floor Plan Feedback
Narrow lot and zero boundary, it's very likely that your house, perhaps other than the master suite, won't get much sunlight during the day, if at all.
Steel beam location and impacts on costs/construction
Thank you. Yes, might ditch the bricks for hebel for the first floor for the final design, if it brings cost savings.
