Also looks like something is going to be built near the display centre, last I heard a mini supermarket/ chemist was the plan??? Has anyone got any info on the building?? Re: Building in EVE Estate 107Mar 08, 2010 10:58 am The display centre is being turned in to a "medical centre/pharmacy" and there is a confirmed IGA supermarket in the carpark across the road, along with many other unknown shops. I have heard rumors of cafes, charcoal chicken and a gym.

Our building start date isnt until June, so still hoping that everything goes to plan from here on. Has anyone else been affected by this? Bonnie and David Re: Building in EVE Estate 109Mar 10, 2010 2:37 pm Hi all, To confirm the new building across from the Sales office will be a mini-supermarket (IGA) deltails of planned SM can be found here ->http://www.casey.vic.gov.au/doclib/document20Aug2009-120016.pdf?saveAs=Planning_Agenda_-_25_August_2009_v20Aug09.pdf I can not confirm what the other shops will be .... but as for the rumors about the Gym this will be going up near the High School along with a new Public Library and Cafe... This is outlined in the Cranbourne North Development Plan ->http://www.gaa.vic.gov.au/Assets/Files/Cranbourne_North_Development_Plan_v4Sep09%5B1%5D.pdf This area (from back of high school to Narre/Cranny rd) is earmarked for future development and is currently to be known as "Casey Central Town Centre".... I would not plan on holding out for the new gym to start getting fit as it may be years away.

Our site scrape is officially on 16th of March, Next Tuesday at last!! We were meant to start in December!

Bonnie and David Hi, I'm also building at Eve [hoping to], stage 13. Settlement was originally planned for April when I contracted in Nov '09, but now it seem to have got delayed like Bonnie and David mentioned. I've been told that the vendor is now targetting early to mid June 2010 registration. Apparently the construction company has gone into voluntary administration in Feb 2010. I was expecting to get the FHOG and had contracted in mid Dec '09 for construction. This delay would mean that the 6 month deadline to start building won't be met as per SRO requirement... Anyone else got any good news? Re: Building in EVE Estate 112Mar 28, 2010 8:57 am Hi All I am also building in Eve. It has been a long drawn out process but finally on the way there. I am in stage 9, signed the contract for my land in May 2009, settled in Nov 2009 and site scrape has happened in the last few weeks. Vidura, you may get an extension granted for the 6 month FHOG issue with help from your builder, especially if it is out of your control. See the SRO website for guidelines. Kathryn Re: Building in EVE Estate 113Mar 28, 2010 9:02 am Hey guys, in stage 6b, we got a delay of about 2 months as well (March title now May). As far as FHOG, all you need is the letters that show the delay was not your doing. Done deal. (We got one from our solicitor from the developers). Re: Building in EVE Estate 114Mar 30, 2010 8:59 am Hi Everyone Our PD Sales lady pulled apart our land contract, photocopied each page, and then put them all back together in the wrong order, so now it's really hard for us to find what we are looking for. Can anyone tell me the landscaping restrictions for Eve?

As far as FHOG, all you need is the letters that show the delay was not your doing. Done deal. (We got one from our solicitor from the developers). Thanks for the replies guys! I have got a letter from Stockland saying that the delay is the fault of their contractor... I guess I can use that to apply for an extension for construction commencement. Does SRO give an extended deadline for that (say another 1 or 2 months) or do I need to know the approximate date when the construction can happen before I apply? From, the SRO website, it seems they want an approximate date for construction. Guess that means I should wait a while things become bit more certain... Re: Building in EVE Estate 116Apr 03, 2010 5:34 pm I am happy stockland contacted my lawyer and advise the settlement for our land will be next week 13/4/10. I am sp excited. According to our builder they will start building late April or early May. Bring it on I say!!!!
