We finally got our formal approval yesterday which was also my birthday so that was kinda good The land developer would not grant us anymore extensions and gave us a June 30 deadline for finance.

Nicci Ohh congrats jenz.. sounds like it went well.. pity about your benchtop you wanted.. did you find a similar one? I did my prestart in october so it was awhile ago.. its always a surprise to us some of the colours we chose as we keep forgetting. Hi Nicci - Thanks. We found a benchtop that hopefully goes ok. We had to choose it on the spot so it was hard! Thanks everyone else. We were on a bit of a tight budget so we are really happy with the end result!

Re: Building with Goodlife Homes Perth - Formal Approval 02/07!! 39Jul 17, 2009 9:56 am I've got a question that may sound a bit dim We will be paying for the upgrades etc that we make at prestart (next week YAYYY!!!!!!) out of our own pockets (ie. it's not incorporated in the loan). Not sure if anyone else is doing it this way (or if everyone is!?) but if you are / have... do you know when they require the payment? Is it a case of on the day or do they give you longer? Just trying to work out when I will need to access my savings account - it's shaking in its boots!!!! Thanks Re: Building with Goodlife Homes Perth - Formal Approval 02/07!! 40Jul 17, 2009 10:32 am My builder gave me a while to pay, but definitely before construction commenced (not that it has yet!) Just call them and ask. My tac-home-ter: Been in 8 months! Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense. I guess when you talk to a builder who butters up everything to look very polished, you get to start believing… 7 18347 3 49994 Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 76209 |
