Although you've just put the idea of plantation shutters in my mind Gaviscon... So I FINALLY got to see my block on Saturday! I was like a kid in a candy store, was just walking laps around it and grinning like an idiot. I may have been caught by construction workers swinging around my street t sign, oops. Pegs are all there, there's no rubbish on the lot, and I could see they've done the soil testing already. I had a sticky beak down the holes they'd made - they didn't hit water or rock. Happy days It's definitely a clay block, so here's hoping it's not too reactive. I also was lucky enough to be at the site at the same time as my neighbours, and they're absolutely lovely. Plans are already in place for wine and getting fences done, so I'm super pleased. So, the loan refresh and settlement drama. My conveyancer got my settlement extended to 28 days, from 14, without penalty. The valuation came back spot on again, and last night I found out the the loan is also fine. I can finally breathe again. So looks like I'll settle towards the end of next week! Ahhhhh it's finally all happening.
