Hello To All...
Re Stage 3A - Lot 18 - Verdelho Avonlee
My wife & I are building on Lot 18 with Ideal Homes - we have had the pleasure of meeting several of you over the last year or so. We signed on to build in October 2012.
Our pad was poured on 15th May this year (second to go down - after Lot 1) & due to the apparent ongoing state wide brickie shortage we have been reluctantly waiting for some action. (Great to see Lot 1's bricks finally going up last week).
Meanwhile, we have watched with much interest as nearly everyone else's pad has been poured, bricks have been delivered & several buildings have started - Lot 16 appears to be nearly structurally complete. Good job.
Anyway - we are excited to share that finally, nearly 3 months after our pad was poured, our brickie team turned up today (Wednesday 13th August) & our build has commenced.
Like everyone else on this forum (including those we have spoken to) we have been very disappointed with Terranovis throughout this whole process; with their continual lack of communication, and ultimately 'say one thing & do another' attitude.
We actually met Andrew Caltabiano on site back in January to discuss our concerns regarding the lack of finishing of the estate - no capping to the brick wall or steps, balustrades down the stairwells, individual letter boxes etc (not to mention the Private Garden space or Pannage Way landscaping) - and he promptly verbally agreed that the estate had indeed not been finished & more work was to be done.
Anyone else meet him & be told something similar?
Subsequently, as everyone has witnessed since then, nothing more has been done; and now that we have all settled, Terranovis it would seem are too busy to finish our estate, and yet are busy contracting yet more development over the road to no doubt lock more folk in & secure their money.
We look forward to being able to unite as a collective & address our concerns together. We as the paying customers should not have to accept a substandard product.
We look forward to developing our community together & wish you all well with your builds.
Hope to see you on site one day soon.
Cheers,
Simon & Jessica
