Hi,
Thanks for the link, it is very useful.
But it seems that Stage 17 no one has got the street number for Parkway Drive.

Your solicitor and bank should be able to answer those questions.
If you have bought land only nothing needs to be done for water or electricity until construction begins.

Indeed. The price is that you can't complain about the builder in an open forum like this or on social media without their expressed permission, or you will be breaching the terms of your building contract.

Hi all, can you let me know what could be the possible reasons why the plans need to be submitted to council rather than cdc? I was a bit frustrated that after waiting for a long time for land registration and making sure that all our colour appointment are done so that when registration comes the builder would be able to start the building process the soonest possible time. We knew eversince that our plans will be through CDC, however along the way there were some modifications that we have requested which is changing from single garage to double garage in a zero boundary lot. My greatest frustration is that along the way when we were requesting the changes, we were happy that the builder accommodated it. But we were not even made aware that there could be an implication that our plans will go to council rather than cdc because of changes made, didn't even know what change has caused it. Now we are in a dilemma that the start of our construction might take a lot longer than we expected. Council approval takes 6-8 wks as compared to CDC approval of 2 wks.

The additional garage and additional house size could have done it. If your house takes up over a certain percentage of your land size then you must go through council. There are other things too but that is usually the most common.
Council approvals are not always 6-8 weeks, I have seen it happening in 2-4 weeks as well so be hopeful

Thanks for the encouragement jack_elara, that's what we can hope and pray for at the moment.
Following suburb name change, the journalist wants to meet few of us personally at the site to take some photos and have a group chat on Monday or Tuesday as a preference if possible. If not, she wants at least few of us to call/email her so she can have more point of views than just one person. Details below.

So it looks like my bank will be delaying settlement on Monday, two weeks is a tight timeframe

My lawyer said up to 10%. We were in a same boat but finally going ahead on Monday.

Same boat. Waiting for the bank to verify the loan documents. Supposed to have settled on Tuesday but it looks like it might take a few more days. Looking at 1 week delay, minimum and approximately $1,000 a week in penalties.
You work hard to earn this money and then to have it taken away in penalties is so annoying. For no fault of your own. Some random people at the bank are't working as hard they should be and we get penalized.
We applied for the loan on the 13th March. Conditionally approved on the 27th March and submitted for formal approval during the 1st week of April. 7 weeks later, we still haven't settled!

Have to pay separately, I'd think. It is with Heritage Bank (QLD based bank). Going through a mortgage broker (Loan Market).
It is a sad development that a few builders will discourage their customers to express their experience and views publicly. However most builders value feedback to improve their service. Nevertheless readers of this forum are intelligent enough to distinguish between a compliment and a critic.
