We are also building the same plan - i think the Lakeview lodge is the updated Hermitage (or the other way round) I sure hope your place starts soon. Our 28days ended at the end of feb and we are still waiting, We were getting excavated last thursday but no one turned up - peirs were being done this week but i guess that will now be put back. We are planning on being in around September so we should be around the same time as each other. Are you going through Beresfield? How are you finding them? We are and finding them VERY relaxed (i hope thats the right word)[/quote] We're building in Singleton. Our 28 days finished yesterday how ever the 28 'working' days gives them till next Wednesday. None of this really matters as I was told on Monday that we will have to wait another 2 weeks just for our start date. Apparently there are about 6 homes in front of ours in the construction breakdown stage. This back log has been caused by someone leaving over the Christmas break who has not yet been replaced. I have been told that this should not impact greatly on our 'completion' date as they factor in a couple of weeks worth of delays into their timetable. We'll see!! Yes, I am finding Beresfield very easy going and 'nice' . Everyone seems lovely and we've never had an issue with anyone getting back to us. I would've liked a bit of pre warning about the 'paperwork' delays. They had to have known there were going to be some with that big of a back log building up! Being in limbo waiting for a start date is enough to drive you mad. On our block we have a lot of landscaping ideas that we can be moving on while the house is under construction however we at least need the earthworks done before we can get moving on it! I'm pretty patient but if I don't know how patient I'll be if we don't get a date in 2 weeks!! I'll be ringing next week anyway just to keep the communication going Will keep you posted. Look forward to seeing how you guys go too! Where abouts are you building?
