Hi @tux_igloo Hope you are well mate. What stage you are in? Our land is in stage 13 - was supposed to title in Jan-Mar'19 but now is delayed to Jun-Aug'19.

It is a long wait. Hopefully there are no further delays - haven't been to the site in a long time so not sure how the works are progressing. According to the website, stage 11 should start getting their titles in Apr. If stage11 is as per schedule then we should follow through.

Hi @krithi I believe the connection for utilities of water, electricity & gas will be organised by your builder to ensure there is power before work on site commences. The builder will be able to provide you with the costs for these. Internet, etc will be activated once the build finishes - the ...

Hi Guys! Had a quick question! well kind of a survey - are you building a single storey or double storey house? I am personally building a single storey house - th Mebbin 25 by Simonds. Happy building! Hey - we are building the Savona with Simonds. I believe it is very similar to the Mebbin.

Hello again everyone! To those who have already settled (Congratulations!) or will be having their settlement on Monday, 17th June who are 1st Home Owners: We're you informed by your conveyancer that you'll have to pay for your stamp duty and then just file for a refund of the full amount once you ...
