How was your experience with financing with waterstone.Do they get you a good deal? Also, would you mind sharing some recent pics of your build.Thanks Re: New Henley Electra build in Mernda/VIC 50Mar 06, 2018 7:19 pm Hi mate, The build is proceeding well; I've been very busy so unable to post recently. Please find some latest photos below - the work outside is almost done (including render) while painting was being done inside. The tiles will start this week; we are looking at hopefully getting it by end of april. Waterstore was good; Kevin was fantastic. You get almost the same deal with most brokers, but Kevin was the differentiator for us. Also, you get $1K off if you use Waterstone which was the deal clincher Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Building the Henley Electra - https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=87341 Re: New Henley Electra build in Mernda/VIC 51Mar 11, 2018 9:52 am Building the Henley Electra - https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=87341 Re: New Henley Electra build in Mernda/VIC 53Apr 27, 2018 1:58 pm Hi Eskay If all goes well we will be building the Electra 35 later this year. The images and info from posts like yours has been invaluable and I thank you for sharing. Are there any updates on your build and how has it been dealing with Henley so far? Re: New Henley Electra build in Mernda/VIC 54Apr 27, 2018 6:45 pm That's great news mate. The house is in lockup phase which is why I've not posted anything recently. I am expecting NHP in the next few weeks; most of the internal work is done so just the finishing touches pending now. My SS has been alright; he has followed up and closed the items raised by my private inspections and I don't have any big complaints until now. My suggestion would be to engage a private inspector for the main stages - this will help get you a better quality product for a minor price increase.

Looks like you'll be in your home very soon. Glad to hear Henley have been ok to deal with; reviews of Henley have me in fear however we really like the Electra floor plan as it will fit nicely onto our block. Re: New Henley Electra build in Mernda/VIC 56May 26, 2018 4:23 pm We have the NHP scheduled on Tuesday; hope everything goes fine. Will be posting a few pics taken during the NHP next week ...

The handover date is potentially 2 weeks away; to be confirmed once Darbecca sends their report and the SS reviews it.

Congratulations ! Would you mind sharing the kitchen and butler's pantry pics. Also, from where and what kind if flooribg you are getting? How much have you been quoted for this?Thanks Re: New Henley Electra build in Mernda/VIC 60May 29, 2018 10:22 pm Thanks dreamhomz. Just realised I've not taken photos of the Butler's pantry - will get them and upload ASAP. We are doing Wood Effect Vinyl for the entry way, main living room and dining areas; rest is carpet. We decided to do Vinyl as it's water proof (not just resistant) and with a toddler around (and potentially pets in the future) we wanted something water proof. We shopped around a lot; finally we decided to go with Carpet call as we got a good deal for about $12K. We are still a bit undecided about the colours; have changed them twice already but with Carpet call you can change them for free until about 1 week before the actual installation Kitchen and dining area photos attached below (taken a couple of weeks back but nothing has changed) - they are a bit dirty but the house is supposed to get a good clean before handover.
