Welcome to WA !

Hey all,

Just thought I'd pop up and say "HI"... been lurking on this site for a couple of weeks now, its been so useful!

My partner and I are also building with New Generation (Summit) Homes. We've gone with the Domain (But have changed a fair bit so it's almost exactly the same as the Boston display home style)... we've just signed off our PPA! VERY EXCITING!

We've bought a block in Vertu Estate, 567sqm, we love it there so can't wait until its all built and we can move in! Though that does seem like an eternity away.

We've just put our Mortgage application through with our Mortgage Broker so will be spending the next two weeks fairly sleepless, me thinks!

OK then... let the good times roll!

Welcome McBecks! Where is Vertu?

Hey McBecks,

What did you have to change to make it like the Boston? To me it looks the same... BTW I work at Summit, which is helpful keeping an eye on things

Hi McBecks!!
great to see another New Generation client! Vertu is lovely!! Are you dealing with Nick as your Sales Consultant? Also, Candace, thats cool you work for Summitt, why didnt you build one of there plans?? Ive got a friend who also works there so Im hopping he will over look my build!

Oh, thanks for your lovely welcomes!

Yes, Vertu is a beautiful Estate... well we thinks so anyway! Yep, its just behind Canning Vale, but its actually called Harrisdale now. (I believe Forrestdale was split into Harrisdale and Piara Waters? Correct me if I'm wrong!)

Candylea- you're right the Boston and Domain are almost exactly the same. We added in the wall stack in the kitchen and the half-high wall behind the kitchen sink as per the Boston kitchen as the Domain didn't offer those and we really liked the display home kitchen. We've also added in some windows and raised the roof etc so its a bit more to our liking. It was cheaper for us to do it this way rather than just buying the Boston as is.

We also have a friend who works for Summit and he is going to be our site supervisor, which is the main reason we're building with them as we know he'll make sure we're looked after.

Our Sales Consultant is Kim, but we did meet Nick too. He was at the Kooper display home, which we really liked also!

There seems to be loads of people buying around the Forrestdale/Harrisdale/Piara Waters area! Good to know that our neighbours are going to be the smart people who know to chat on here! Hahaha...

Hi everyone!

My partner and I are building in Carramar with SPH. We got a letter from the builder yesterday saying that the site survey and soil report have been received, now we have a 7 week wait while the drafting department draws up plans etc.

I can't wait until this bit is finished and we can book our pre-start... fingers crossed everything goes to plan!

Ahh John... he always has his door closed hehe. McBecks, is the supervisor Nathan C? Someone's paperwork I saw recently requested him as theirs. Oh and hello locus

My settlement is due tomorrow.. that is if the vendors signs the transfer papers in time gosh darnit - they've had plenty of time.

we are owner-building in Harrisdale (Heron Park Estate)

we love it there!!! usually go for walks in heron park across to vertu, stunning!!!

hope everything goes well in exams and your soil test
