It all takes so long, and you can't really unpack until the painting is done, otherwise everything gets paint on it We have been in our house for over a month now and I still have a bit of touch-up painting to do. I still haven't unpacked properly yet either! Mind you, I'm not rushing with the unpacking It will be worth it in the end We had energy saving downlights installed which are fantastic. Electrician charged $30/light and each light fitting cost $22. I can PM you the details if you want!

I think we are going to wait till we can afford someone to do it. My sister says we would do a dogs breakfast job of it lol.. Probably right We would love to be able to afford to get it done before we move in but I don't think that's the case. It is a shame it's not included in it all.
