No worries!
Just make sure you've got the conduit run from outside (near your meter box) into the garage; and some data cabling between the same spot in the garage and…

You'll note 3C, 6A, 6B, and stage 8 are listed as 'build preparation', so they're not ready…

I sent in the fencing voucher about 6 weeks from the estimated completion date. The fence was done 1 week before handover (so took about 5 weeks). The one…

Hi Ranbir,
Avonlee was developed from private land holdings - so there aren't any lots made available to state housing. I believe Whiteman Edge is on land that Stockland bought…

Hi Elly,
Have Terranovis sent you a fencing voucher? For 3A, we were told to send it in 2 weeks before your house is due to be completed. I sent…

Hi Jamie,
I posted earlier about the rehab centre. It's been knocked back by the Swan Valley Planning Commission.

With regards to the $700 NBN…

Odd they put meters out so early if they're just going to get nicked. But then again I guess water corp want to charge for every last drop.
Also an…

Hmm no letter for me...
Looks like it's an expansion to an existing facility - http://www.shalomhouse.com.au/
Cnr Park St and Murray Rd. I always wondered what that…

Does it specify which three lots?

For those who aren't aware, you can check your building permit status online with the City of Swan:

Definitely cheaper to do them yourself - though I was lucky in 3A Terranovis provided a stormwater connection so it was just piping, so I got a credit from the…

Hi all!
Haven't been on in ages, just caught up on where everyone is at; glad to see the mood is much more positive now things are happening!
I went for…

Mine was done through the builder, who contracted Intelligent Home. The pack they installed was $1100 though the builder.
You'll need a registered cabler to do the work for you,…

Something I've seen other people do, and kind of wish I did too (though it's easy enough to do down the track) - put the manhole in the garage, make…

On paving, check how much the builder charges per square metre. It's usually an inflated price so they make their profit on it; if you're prepared to organise it…

Hi Kaylz,
Have you selected your tiles yet? I'd suggest grabbing a stack of laminate chips that catch your eye, and think about them over a few weeks just to be…

Good post Kalyz.
I've not got much to add except to reaffirm that it is a very drawn out process, particularly with Terranovis in the mix.
To give you an idea -…

Also you can look on Landgate's mapping tool, I found my lot showed up on there a day or two before I was advised titles were issued. Though it's…

Hah sounds like something Terranovis would do - build a road then dig it up because they forgot something...

I've heard $3k to $4k for an average size house. I'll be painting my house myself (now only a few weeks 'till handover), with the help of friends. …

It's usually a few months after white set is done that handover occurs - so usually enough time for it to dry out, unless it's very rainy/humid during that time.…

Very dependant on titles unfortunately.
I'm expecting completion of my house (in 3A) mid February - almost a year after settlement (issues with contradictory information in the DAP that took approx.…

My builders' surveyors went out for a soil test as soon as I told them what lot it was (even before Terranovis started work on the retaining walls).
Then, once all…

They should be able to go do the survey now, the lots in 3C look like they're complete. There's no barrier at the end of Pannage Way now, so…

Hmm I dare say that'd be Terranovis (for the development plan) - after all, they're running it!

Maybe your settlement agent could help here? Or possibly a surveyor/Landgate.
If it's something you weren't made aware of when you signed up, you could possibly get out of your…

Hmm you can generally still have a driveway/garden over it, but no permanent structures. So you'd need to shape your house around it

Damn....
Bit odd that it's at the front, and not in the verge area... What lot do you have again?

Easements are usually the result of a utility being nearby. You'll have to find what that utility is and the restrictions around it. I've never heard of one…
