Hopefully it's smooth sailing from now on @Extreme.

Thanks @ JordanSpringsNovice.
We picked up a fair amount of cosmetic problems, a lot of it revolved around scrappy paint jobs and some chips/dents to cornices and just about all of…

Totally agree.
We will be doing another look through their display home as well for comparison before we do our walk through. We were told that the display homes are 'what…

Thanks @JordanSpringsNovice.
We have already mentioned a few things along the way so hopefully they have started attending to them this week but I won't hold my breath!

Our PCI is booked for next Wednesday afternoon, hopefully there won't be a long list of items that require attention before we accept handover.

@JordanSpringsNovice ... thanks, I think it will be a bit of a frosty meeting with the site supervisor though, we've had a couple of disagreements along the way. We have…

Your solicitor is being very slack then, its a very simple process, they just order it online through one of their search providers. It literally takes them 3 minutes. There…

Like us then, you only get the $5,000 new building grant.
Stamp duty on $704,000 is $27,190 versus $13,240 on $394,000, as you can see its quite a substantial difference.

Hi Swiftsport
I'm not sure of your personal situation (whether you qualify for the first home owners grant and stamp duty exemption) however, if you are like us and don't qualify,…

Just wondering if anybody has any recommendations for fencing contractors?
We are about to start arranging quotes and are wondering who everyone has used?

For those that are further along in your build, has anyone started obtaining quotes for fencing??

They provided me with the info for Sentinel and I…
