Anyone here had to deal with Cardinia Council?? Yes.... you guys have been waiting forever from council havent you hopefully the end is near! Re: Porter Davis homes 14532Mar 30, 2017 3:23 pm We had our pre approval and they have already financed the land portion of the loan, it's been over a month since we submitted all the paperwork for the rest of the build and literally half an hour ago I got an email saying it's been processed and they will get in touch soon (which means probably another week) to issue the loan documents to sign, then another week to actually release the finance. Re: Porter Davis homes 14533Mar 30, 2017 3:26 pm We had our PCI again yesterday, and while there were a few things to finish off we FINALLY have a handover date. Being next friday!! Not bad for an initial Site start May 2016 completion by Nov 2016...

Ahhhh i see, so this is funds needed for PD to submit to council? I actually cant even remember that far back for deposits payable etc. I cant even remember paying before council approval, apart from the tender one. Surely they have completed your second soil though and have your contract all ready for final signoff. I would be pestering them for an update so you can also finalize those costs and be sure there is nothing else coming.

It's more the fact then it's held up completing the demo part which we thought was finished! It's been a pain from the start but I've decided not to stress about it anymore and just go with the flow. It's not worth the stress at the moment. We will get there eventually. Re: Porter Davis homes 14537Mar 30, 2017 3:52 pm nikil Long time coming Liz! Must feel good to finally have an end date!

And trust me when you start seeing things progress on site you cant help getting your hopes up. If i've learnt anything from this process and forum its just to ignore any of PD's timelines and dates becasue it almost guaranteed to blow out causing somewhat disappointment. And yes you will defiantly get there eventually. I just truly hope they pick up their game and people start getting the service they deserve.

Must have been building you a Cubby house Nah, just had a really great SS who was very organised and professional. He had all our trades booked ahead of time and they all did a quality job therefore not requiring any fixes. We never got held up 1 day from lockup for 3 weeks like others mention. Three options 1 Ask the liquidator 2 Find another PD customer and ask the source of their report 3 Pay for new report 3 14031 I would never build with Fowler homes.
