Blog: http://dandesbuild.blogspot.com.au Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 857Mar 21, 2014 3:59 pm Wow how come the building permit took so long? I'm definitely not looking forward to mortgage payments whilst renting so the quicker the better! Starting to get very impatient as it's already been 4 months since signing pwc! Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 858Mar 21, 2014 4:08 pm From titles it takes HBC (or they allow) 45 days to obtain the reports they need: property services info (PSI-gas/water pipes connections), soil testing and reports, engineering reports, Council info then they submit the application for developer approval (and await response), then apply for the building permit before you are handed over to the construction team to get a start date. Ruby123 was a few weeks quicker than mine going through that process. I signed my PWC in March 2013, had a wait on titles which came through in September. I'm renting too, it's painful but worth the prize at the end!

Yes definitely worth it in the end! Looks like the houses are going up pretty fast so that's exciting!! Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 860Mar 21, 2014 5:44 pm mtreg21 - Our building started the next day from settlement. We had so many delays, that HBC jumped at us when they finally got the heads up it was finally happening. Mortgage repayments start a month after settlement. So far it's small, but it's going to start hurting while renting as we get closer to handover. I've got some great news! Our frames are up I went past tuesday and nothing much had happened. They are moving so fast!! Still haven't been invoiced for the slab or spoken to our SS. Neighbours are about to move in so we have fences to pay for too. All happening. I havent, and i havent looked to much into it, but on face value its not the saviour its trying to make out to be. Shared equity in your home is never a good idea.
