Was it on channel 9? I didn't catch the entire broadcast but i didn't see anything,

Yeah guys don't get excited, almost a year to the day ago we got a physical letter that said basically the same thing. Nothing changed.

Can someone PM me a copy of this email? I got the first one just after Easter from the building commission but not this latest one, keen to see exactly…

Obviously everyone's situation is different but typically you've bought the land yourself, it's already in your name and as long as you pay the mortgage it's yours.

I hear you... had a friend who lives near our new place swing by last night, another week of nothing at our place :-(

No updates for me since last week when the CLO said they don't know when the next lot of work will be done :-(

I've had no reason to question the quality, there's been a couple of bricks fall off but for all I know that's fairly normal and will be fixed up when…

Fingers crossed you don't get affected by the same hold ups the rest of us have!
From what I've been told they just sold seriously more houses then they have capacity…

NOR, you?
I believe we can claim liquidated damages which can equate to interest on the mortgage, rental costs etc. (anything associated with not being able to live in the house)…

That's really really crap,
I'm worried as our CLO keeps telling us as soon as the current work is done they have plenty of plaster's etc and that the remaining…

I got the shock of my life yesterday, I went up to the house, had a look in through the front windows

That's hilarious considering I was assured just last week that plastering will immediately follow the plumbing/electrical work that was all supposed to happen last week (of which absolutely nothing happened.)…

Hi,

I actually found out why that was the other day. Apparently Freelife/Capital Works constructions directly employ the tradies for everything up to plate height. They've massively overbooked themselves in terms…

Oh no doubt they wouldn't like it and considering this thread is like the 2nd or 3rd thing Google returns when searching Freelife means they would have seen it pretty…

I would say so, peoples full names were starting to get mentioned so I can see why complaints would have been made.

But are there actually standards (or similar) that set out what is defined in each progress stage, i.e. lock up? I sought clarification regarding lock up progress payment from the…
