Browse Forums Building A New House Re: My build - Bloomdale, Vic 30May 09, 2017 9:22 pm HENRY Melt23 HENRY Melt23 nice choice! They will look stunning above your kitchen bench. I hope so Had a call from my conveyancer today to check if I'd had any updates from the developer (I haven't) so he's going to get in contact with them to check if titling is expected still in may/June as advised originally- I look forward to hearing back from him once he hears back from them & am crossing my fingers and toes that all is on schedule! Went out on the weekend and it looks like the rio? For the road has been delivered- my block will be over near where the orange flags are Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Also, Friday night I got a super early birthday present from my family and can happily say I am now the mummy to two beautiful little chihuahuas! Worked out well because I will get to toilet train them before I move out and hopefully they will be over their current 'chew all the things' phase by the end of the year. Also good to get all the vet stuff required out of the way before I have a mortgage- gee wizz pets are expensive! Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ WOW your lucky to have two little cuties to look after. They will give you heaps of love and affection. Your family have spoilt you for you Birthday. So happy Birthday Melt for whenever it is. On another note. Do you not have a fence opposite your study where your clothes line can go? I was very spoilt Hmm the clothesline is one that folds upwards and I am guessing it needs to be attached to the bricks? I don't know, but the 'void' is only a little area (like 1.5m by 2m) that is a 'small block' requirement in my estate, it's a bit of a waste of space but can't do much about it! I never thought to question if it could go against the fence! Re: My build - Bloomdale, Vic 31May 09, 2017 9:41 pm No harm in asking, hopefully your land registers as planned. Re: My build - Bloomdale, Vic 32May 13, 2017 1:47 pm A nice tradie let me in the fence today to go check out my block!

But nice to see all the piles of dirt have been taken away/flattened out. I met my neighbour on the fb community group and apparently she had been advised recently that titles will be happening end of June. I was kinda hoping it would be late May but I suppose end of June is ok. Originally was hoping I could be in by Christmas but I heard my builder takes a while to site start due to a backlog of builds so I guess it will be whatever it is and I'll be in eventually. This whole patience thing takes some getting used to. Haha Re: My build in Bloomdale, Vic -Awaiting land title 34May 17, 2017 8:03 pm Melt23 Had an email today from the developers saying titling should be happening early June squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!! That's fantastic news Melt. June is just around the corner it shouldn't take long to get here.

That's fantastic news Melt. June is just around the corner it shouldn't take long to get here. Thanks Henry this year is flying by which is kinda good at the moment! I received my amended drawings earlier this week and have been having a big stress over the window & clothesline in the void situation. They moved the window down to place the clothesline above it which was all good apart from the fact the window was moved to be 1m off the ground and it is only 50cm tall so it was a random window that you'd have to bend down to see out of. And the clothesline was placed above it but it would have only been a few cm above my head (and I'm not tall!!)- I asked them to move it all up 20cm but was told that wouldn't work. It was then suggested I move the window up real high and have the line under it, that sounded good to me but their drafting people said no because structurally it wouldn't work. So I've moved the window back to where it was (quite high, but will be good to let light in to the studynook/hallway, and deleted the clothesline completely. Lol. I feel like with the land titling real soon I want everything sorted asap so there's no hold ups for the build starting, and the clothesline just didn't work wherever I tried to place it, so I will look for something that works once the house is complete. No biggie really as they aren't that expensive and I have a clotheshorse to dry my stuff on in the meantime Also naively thought the build would start as soon as land settles but clarified that today and it won't start until around 60 days after settlement. Also the other 3 terrace houses need to be built at the same time so I hope my future neighbours are as ready for the build to start as I am Re: My build in Bloomdale, Vic -Awaiting land title 36May 25, 2017 9:32 pm Had a phone call today from the developer, the land has been lodged for titling and titling is expected 1-4 of June. That's next week! I was mentally prepared for it to all happen in a few weeks time, not next week! Feeling a bit spewy with nervousness now!

You can always find help and answers from you friends on this forum if needed Thanks Henry Sammy74 Hi did your land title? Stage 15 did now I am waiting for the permits. Your house sounds lovely I am looking forward to hearing about your house build. Yes! It titled on Friday- I've got a meeting with my conveyancer tomorrow after work to sign some documents and I assume make an appointment for settlement! I got my first variation today- asked for an extra gpo and datapoint on the drawings and also had to pay extra for upgrading to 'soundproof' all external walls on BR1- unfortunately when I originally got a quote pre contract they thought I was only asking for one wall so when I picked up that it wasn't on all 3 walls on the drawings I've had to pay extra to get it how I wanted. Boo. Luckily the credit for the clothesline I asked to be deleted has cancelled out the cost of the insulation so I'm only paying $150 variation yes it does, you've just not understood it. theres a difference. 4 5981 Your house should come in "as new" condition. It should be clean, and without stains 1 5020 |
