We had some good news today, our certificate of occupancy came through!! So all things well we should pick up the keys Monday, woohoo. Still waiting to hear back about the boundary though as its gone up the line, hopefully we get some news on that tomorrow.

Hi SimondsCleo, No...the certificate of occupancy didn't get approved as the brickies didn't do the articulation according to the engineering plan. Simonds tried to have the plan amended to match what the brickies did, but the building inspector knocked them back. So now the brickies have to come ba...

Thanks TomCat! We are ready and rearing!! Still waiting for the certificate of occupancy, now expected on Friday, then handover early next week. We won't get our hot water and range hood until after Christmas now though as they tradies finish up Friday here. No worries though, gives us a couple week...

Thanks SimondsCleo, yeah was glad the decking is in, its treated pine and will do nicely until we work our way through the other fifty jobs and replace with some nice merbau decking. Speaking of jobs to do...My folks were down for the weekend and while we were walking around the yard discussing idea...

Well done TC, hopefully smooth sailing from hear on out!

Hey TC :) we have our PCI on Wednesday arvo! All done, they just have a couple touch ups and small things to do. I took a video on my phone that I'm finally uploading tonight, it's only at 70% and has been loading all night....yawn....

Oh no TC! Why so expensive, you didn't mention you were building on the beach!? I feel ya SimondsCleo, I know they are fast overall but there is still plenty of room for improvement ey

Hey simondscleo, yeah it did seem to slow down but they were there probably 2-3 days a week on average an doing a lot on the inside. It's has come around quick now we are at the pointy end of it :) good to see your progress btw!

Oh, we had more good news, apparently settlement will be in December!

Thanks RU :) I would love to do another video TC but the scaffold is all packed up and it's locked up tight now. We're hoping to meet up with the SS early next week so will do a video then. The carpet we chose was discontinued by the carpet mob so we were called in to reselect carpet. Turns out we'r...

No, we will get the curtains people out after handover. We have flooring downstairs today! http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/11/10/fe7e9fbb816aa847de0ba037bea85124.jpg

Hi TC, me too! We haven't been able to get in to sneak a look as they are locking up tight now. It's purring along nicely though, can see our bench tops are in, tiles laid, bathroom/laundry fittings, outside weather boards/down pipes on. Looks like just flooring, carpet and odd bits and pieces to go...
