I just would like to share my experience to our first land rates. We had paid the land rates for the period of feb'15 to Jun'15 during the land settlement with the lawyer. However we received the land rates bill from the council for that period as the vendor didn't pay for that. After a months constant phone calls with our lawyer they finally paid (after the due date). Later I found out that some of my friends who were building had the same issue and found out they paid it twice as they didn't notice that was already paid during the land settlement. So please everyone check your land rates bills. You could save $$$$ out of it. Re: Who is building with Beechwood 10065Jun 04, 2015 12:18 pm We had the same issue with our rates bill, I think it's a pretty common occurrence. My DH nearly paid it until I checked the invoice from the solicitor that said it was included in there fees.

I thought it must have been for the next 12 months, but when I checked dates it was for the period the developers had to pay.

Some of our neighbours said it was closer to six months for them. http://verdehloguest.blogspot.com.au Bek and John (and our three kids) Building Verdelho Guest at Haywards Bay see page 167 for floorplan Our blog http://verdehloguest.blogspot.com.au Re: Who is building with Beechwood 10076Jun 09, 2015 8:38 pm thats great you are cruising along nicely smart5! well no more progress on ours this week, we hit 30 weeks of building this week and have decided that we will wait until Friday and if there is still no progress we will be making a formal complaint.

Fingers crossed you see some work done this week. After reading this I just pulled out the contract to see what the contract build term is. Re: Who is building with Beechwood 10080Jun 09, 2015 9:09 pm Hi all. Just after some info on the following. Im currently looking at houses to build in the central west of NSW and i love the beechwood floor plans but i have come across alot of unhappy beechwood customers on other forums. Unhappy about the quality of the work, the way they are treated once the contract has been signed and the build time. Some are saying that its taken 7 months already and their home still isnt finished.thats almost double what other builders guarantee. Im looking at the Verdelho 5 so any information about the house if anyone has built it or beechwood would be a great help. Elvis has left the building...
