The lady was so dismissive and unhelpful and I think it was just covering up her total ignorance on the topic. We were trying to understand about all the different types of tiles and I'd ask "so what's the difference between glazed and polished" and she'd say "because one of them is GLAZED" in this real slow patronising tone with raised eyebrows like I was a total idiot. Ohh still angry at the memory. We ended up going to the Beaumont at Underwood which is smaller but they were all friendly and helpful there.

On Friday we got conditional loan approval for our land, so just have to wait on the valuation, but should be all good. Also, now entering week 4 after requesting tender/new home order and all has been quiet. No word on soil tests, just nothing. All we got was at the start of last week the standard 'welcome' email. So at this rate we'll have to request an extension with the land developer as we have a deadline to have the building contract signed in first week of May. So just waiting, like many others.

Interesting, we have just gone finance unconditional on our block and paid for survey/soils last week - no word from them but we only have a 2 week soil test clause and we're due to settle in 3 week from today, which plantation office are you dealing with? Re: First Home with Plantation Homes: Marlo 4 17Apr 02, 2014 10:45 am We dealt with the sales consultant in our estate, Coomera Retreat, but when we finalised our new home order, she said the head office in Springwood would contact us and become our point of contact. But that hasn't happened yet. I'm thinking if I still hear nothing by Friday I'll ring up our sales consultant. Re: First Home with Plantation Homes: Marlo 4 18Apr 04, 2014 4:31 pm Just another small update. Partner rang the Plantation head office to inquiry about our status, and was directed through to the lady who had our file. Apparently she only got it this morning, and the appointment she could get us into was on May 15th for our tender presentation. So they are definitely backlogged. And still no word on the soil test, but she said it should be done our May 15th appointment. Re: First Home - Plantation Homes: Marlo 4 | Gold Coast 19Apr 04, 2014 7:45 pm Wow that's a long time! How frustrating for you. Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=65085 Re: First Home - Plantation Homes: Marlo 4 | Gold Coast 20Apr 06, 2014 4:46 pm Indeed. She has given us an option where we can schedule our colour appointment and everything prior to the new home presentation, which might be what we do, as it sounds like it will make the next steps a bit shorter in wait time. Today when we went and drove by our land, we now have a sold sign! Yay.
