Stage 2 is having an issue with water apparently, causing a further delay. Statement of Compliance expected first week of September. Re: East Estate 44Sep 12, 2017 6:49 pm Noticed that most of builders have done soil tests and survey even before compliance starting from around 18th August. Soil report still to to come but came to know about someone in stage 2 has got H2 in soil test. Survey for my lot is done and it has come at around 200mm fill. Waiting for soil test report. Further, noticed that the east estate land developer has let the wild grass just grow and won't probably do anything. There will be many photos tomorrow morning around 1130 of estate with wild grass. follow my build Arden homes Votivo 37 iin south east: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=88622 Re: East Estate 45Sep 13, 2017 2:46 pm On settlement day Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Probably providing a clean lot is not their thing compared to lots on clydevale and other land developers follow my build Arden homes Votivo 37 iin south east: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=88622 Re: East Estate 46Sep 13, 2017 3:03 pm pEast Noticed that most of builders have done soil tests and survey even before compliance starting from around 18th August.

Our builder has been told explicitly by the developer now soil tests or anything of the sort are allowed until settlement has occurred, so I'm not sure how anyone else in Stage 2 has managed to get theirs done already, considering SOC was only issued last Thursday.

Surprisingly stage 2 lot 230 on the corner had its taps at the same time done too. Simonds are first to fence lot 148. And also noticed a lot of rubbish and mattresses thrown around. follow my build Arden homes Votivo 37 iin south east: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=88622 Re: East Estate 50Oct 28, 2017 4:41 pm So Simonds in lot 148 has roof trusses on and 8homes slab and in stage 2 sbg has its slab - these 3 had the soil tests long before others. My builder tried to charge penalty rate for greater than 12 months but straight told them that they did a soil test in stage 2 in August so I am not paying penalty for oct cos they did only soil test on my lot on 21st sept Further thieves at work have stolen the taps where ever they could find in stage 1 and 2 and also saw that they have stolen the lawn pieces laid recently Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ follow my build Arden homes Votivo 37 iin south east: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=88622 Re: East Estate 51Oct 28, 2017 7:51 pm Yep i went and cleared our block today as our builder will be on site week after next. Thieves have stolen our tap which i am not happy about but unfortunately there is nothing I can do about it. I did notice that the Simonds block in stage 1 has some of the temp fence knocked down and the meter box looks as though some electrical components have been stolen as well. I hope this isnt a sign of what is to come for our build, time will tell I guess. Re: East Estate 52Oct 29, 2017 7:21 pm All the residents in our estate pressured the developer to install a 24 hour camera at each entrance to record vehicles dumping rubbish and to deter thieves. It's definitely working as the reduction in losers dumping rubbish has dropped dramatically. Re: East Estate 54Oct 31, 2017 7:56 pm So visit the site today and they have installed camera st entrance not sure when cos never paid any attention nor sure what it will do just recording entrance anyway follow my build Arden homes Votivo 37 iin south east: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=88622 Re: East Estate 55Dec 12, 2017 11:05 am so looks like stage 3 and 4 are also titled and ready for settlement. follow my build Arden homes Votivo 37 iin south east: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=88622 Re: East Estate 56Dec 12, 2017 11:07 am Yes I had confirmation from our builder than Stage 3 has titled a couple of weeks back.

Now hopefully I can get in contact somehow with my neighbour behind which is in Stage 3 to discuss fencing options..... yes - that's good and if some people on the back start the build in January it will be good for you and easy to sort the fence issue - never know - Simonds r building some more in stage 1 and 2 looks like and the chances of a build right at the rear could be a Simonds - chances look good follow my build Arden homes Votivo 37 iin south east: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=88622 Re: East Estate 58Dec 12, 2017 12:19 pm Time will tell. I have noticed a lot of temp fences and slabs go down over the past couple of weeks which is great. Hopefully we see some starting in Stages 3 & 4 over the next week.
