I would like to know this as well.
I am building with Goodlife homes in Canning Vale.
Our slab was down on 24/3 and the ceiling and cornices are done when we went to check yesterday.
I am guessing the lock up would be this or next week.


Hi AJ1sthome

I am also building with Goodlife homes but in Byford. Just curious which house you are building and how long after prestart etc you got a slab down?

Goodluck



I am Building with goodlife also in byford!!!! We were at lock up two weeks ago they said our PCI would be First week of july then about 10 days after that!!! YAY!!!
Hi Claire bear,
Thanks for the info... So it would only take 5 weeks to PCI from lock up? That is pretty quick...
Our lock up is next week so I am expecting it will take 10 or 12 weeks to PCI.. Hopefully faster than that.. because we have not hear anything yet from the builder yet..

Nicci,

I checked back the older posts and realised my house is just opposite yours...
what a surprise...

Went to check our house yesterday and realised your garage grano is done.

Also, one more question. Did your neighbour approach you before erect the new fences? Do you know how much she paid for them?

Thank heaps....
Aha well hello there neighbour.. Yes i am so excited.. it goes so quickly. Going to the house tonight so hopefully we can get in and take photos.

Yes we spoke with our neighbour regarding colours and pricing. The best we got was $65 a mtr. Ill pm the guys details to you.. Just mention the area and thats what my neighbour said to do. It cost her about $5600 for all her fencing. We only need one gate and our garage takes up 7s\ish metres i think so thank goodness our quote should be cheaper.

We have neighbours to the right of us now so we can also split the bill straight away with them which im happy about.

Ya.. that's right.. the block next to you did have the slab down.. so you can share the fencing costs with them...
save $$$$$...
