Browse Forums Building A New House Re: South @ Seaford Meadows 621Apr 03, 2014 7:15 am Im a Foodland Guy too, I dont like the Duoplogy..... a pity Woolworths had to muscle in and get ANOTHER shop so close the the Main Seaford Shopping Complex... Where's Foodland??? I like the idea of a BWS in walking distance to my house though..... what other shops in there at SM Shopping Center???

There are brochures/menus for a cafe/take away place on one of the windows too. Italian sort of meals by the looks - Pizza, Pasta etc. Looks like it might be open for all meals as it is open from 8am-10pm ish everyday. Menu sounds nice, although I think it seems a bit overpriced personally for a neighbourhood cafe. Re: South @ Seaford Meadows 623Apr 05, 2014 12:04 pm I would have liked Coles, only because there are already Woolies and Foodland in Seaford. I have kids with allergies and some products are only available at 1 of the supermarkets, so I find myself running around. It really shows how greedy the big 2 are to put another Woolies so close. When will Adelaide get an Aldi? Research in Sydney shows the Coles and Woolies with Aldi close by are cheaper!

Kickbacks??? I'll be using my local food land on my way home for work on a regular basis I reckon and only use woollies down the street when I'm desperate for a last minute purchase.... Yah!!!!

Re: South @ Seaford Meadows 630May 07, 2014 12:53 pm We also had a cost of $550.00 added to our soil test variation, South @Seaford Meadows. Which luckily our Fairmont salesman who is great told us we might get. He said to cross it out and write by Realty SA next to it . They will peg it out before settlement , Then we will go and hammer some thing that doesn't get pulled out or lost in, so we don't have to pay the cost again when we own the land . Just wanted to let people know this in case it happens to them too !! If he didn't mention it we would have probably just paid this .. Re: South @ Seaford Meadows 631May 07, 2014 6:36 pm So the $550 is for what exactly?? I dont have a SOLD sign yet. Although My settlement was in early February and I have been paying the mortgage payments on it...... and I have pegs at each corner and they are identifying each block number.... although after months of delays with Realty SA getting to this stage..... My street has curbs Bitumen and lights etc now and I see on the NBN site that NBN installation is now back on after Dear Tony Axed it all late last year.......

They only found 2 on our block But they will redo it before settlement then if after that if not found we have to pay to have it redone before the build starts. Re: South @ Seaford Meadows 633May 13, 2014 5:54 pm Thats a RIP OFF!! who charges you that ??? Realty SA??? or Builder???

Ours were slightly buried and we found them pretty easy when they said they couldn't. Also, ours were out slightly so they wanted to re-peg the whole block. We found out from fairmont who they use, contacted them and said we were a customer of fairmonts and they re-pegged the whole block for less than they're charging you for two pegs.
