Settled

Hello again.
We have now taken ownership of our block. Settlement was on thursday the 22nd. We have also seen a little bit of progress on the block already with simonds already pegging out the boundary lines and starting to site scrape. This had started before settlement had been done which was good. Now that we have the christmas, new year break we wont see anymore work till mid January. I will keep you up to date when we have more progress. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone.

Titled (Finally)

Well its done, we just rceieved an email on wednesday the 7th Dec from our conveyancer confirming that our block has finally been titled. It's 9 months overdue from what they expected when we put down our deposit. Now this is titled they have told us that settlement will be on the 22nd Dec which will see us not start the build until after the christmas break. Our simonds customer relations co-ordinator is hoping to move it forward so they can start as early as next friday 16th Dec. My wife & I's fingers are crossed that they can start on the 16th as it may mean we have the slab down by christmas break.

We have a meeting this week with Simonds to sign off on the final plans and meet our site supervisor. Its getting very exciting now.


Here is some current photo's of our block.
