We even took pictures of the writing they put on the wood frame. Time lines etc....was cool Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 3082Oct 30, 2015 9:00 pm Oh wow! Cant wait to see more photos from you. Can I ask, as each stage of the build is completed, the site supervisor contacts you to arrange a viewing time? Is that right? Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 3083Oct 30, 2015 9:01 pm We've not had that. We have had private inspections run that we're invited to however haven't gone yet due to work. We will go to the final one. We do get updates often from our contact at homebuyers. Forget her position name Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 3084Oct 30, 2015 9:05 pm Oh ok I must have misunderstood something.. we get weekly email updates too. I wish we could have used darbecca for each stage but its just too pricey for us at the moment. I will need to call our site supervisor, so that we can go on site soon to have a proper look. Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 3085Oct 30, 2015 9:15 pm It really is expensive 😢 We had been going up on weekends however no longer have access as it's locked up now. Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 3086Oct 30, 2015 9:18 pm I spoke with rebecca and she recommended that all stages get done. With me being on mat leave, its not something that we can get done at this time. We were looking to get 2 inspections done (final) and another. I asked rebecca which other one she would recommend but she wouldnt say? We are still undecided. Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 3087Oct 30, 2015 9:20 pm Maybe slab and final.....or frame? Slab is your foundation so important..... Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 3088Oct 30, 2015 9:27 pm So do you recommend to get a private inspector to inspect the stages? Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 3089Oct 30, 2015 9:29 pm I think so. It's really worth it. Do what you can afford. They've picked up some small things however things that could lead to possible damage down the track. Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 3091Oct 30, 2015 9:31 pm I would also talk to Rebecca and say hey this is all we can afford. What should we do. They've been fantastic and will tell you what's most important to get done. Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 3092Oct 30, 2015 9:32 pm Oh ok, how much are they and is there any you recommend? Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 3093Oct 30, 2015 9:36 pm Darbecca has great reviews. Each stage is about $500 and something. They're really expensive but the reports are long and in depth. These guys really get into it. I was so freaked out by my first report however he said they were all minor things. I'd hate to see a bad report. Check out there website. Just type in Darbecca and you'll find it Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 3094Oct 30, 2015 9:40 pm $500 ain't bad, thought you was going to say about $1,500 per stage lol Thanks for that I will google them Re: Anyone building with Homebuyers Centre in VICTORIA? 3095Oct 30, 2015 9:41 pm Anytime.
