Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Avonlee Henley Brook Perth 2882Jul 10, 2015 12:57 pm Hi Everyone, I was at the estate last night and it all looks really good. Congrats on those who have slabs down. Ours went down yesterday so I am very happy. I do hope everyone else is getting what they need without any hassles. It's been a long time coming. Also want to welcome everyone who is new to the forum. It's great to see our forum grow so we can meet all our lovely neighbours and help each other where we can. Kaylz - I work at Curtin university in the film department as a store manager. I also am an aspiring film producer so I'm filming during my spare time. I do run a small business with a friend called 'Hooked On Film' where we review films on a weekly basis. My partner works at UWA as a Lab technician. Can't wait to meet all of you! 22 Dreng Way, Brabham Land-25 May 2013 House-May 2013 Finance Formal approval -Feb 2015 Prestart -21 Mar 2015 Titles -22 May 2015 Land settled -15 June 2015 Slab - 9 July 2015 Bricks - 7 July 2015 Re: Avonlee Henley Brook Perth 2883Jul 10, 2015 1:25 pm Hi Elly, that's awesome We'll need security eventually, i'm not sure if a little house would be up Wade's alley, however we could use this as a form of networking to help those who have their own businesses, keep it local, share the love !! Hey Salvi, great to hear your slab has gone down - great work! An aspiring film producer, that's awesome and sounds interesting. Love that you have your own little business too. Who else have we got in here ?? 14 Dreng Way, Brabham Signed Land Contract - 29/06/2014 Finance Formal approval - 16/09/2014 Prestart - 30/04/2015 Titles - 22/05/2015 Building Permit - 25/05/2015 Land settled - Slab - Bricks - Re: Avonlee Henley Brook Perth 2884Jul 10, 2015 8:52 pm Hi guys. Happy Friday! Glad to hear slabs are going down. Interesting reading about the state housing... We are all in it together in my opinion and it's up to us what we make of the community So I think we will have a pretty good place going very soo Kavi, we are building with Redink. Super excited to get started. I work in Logistics and Operations, I currently work in Welshpool as Warehouse Manager and my wife is involved in costing and accounts for a large transport company in Bassendean.

I'm EA to the CEO at a law firm in the CBD, Nicks a fitness consultant at a gym in Ozzy Park. BradTam we've got really close friends with an Autistic middle son too. He's three and the best kid in the world. Autistic children really are something so special!!! How old is your son? It's awesome sharing stories. It will be awesome when we all meet. I'm dying to visit the estate over the weekend to see if we've had any progress or even a slab!!

Professional, efficient and I could sign docs or call outside of normal hours. More importantly she kept Terranovis honest. Re: Avonlee Henley Brook Perth 2896Jul 13, 2015 9:55 pm Hey everyone, I assume we all are going through Terranovis for our land. I have bought land in stage 6b. Apparently our documents are due to be sent to landgate any day now. I spoke to a lady from landgate who said it will take about 6 weeks for the full process, whereas the receptionist at Terranovis has said one week at most. You guys have been through this, how long does it take for the process through landgate? Thank you everyone, and congratulations on finally getting titles and slabs down! Re: Avonlee Henley Brook Perth 2898Jul 14, 2015 11:14 am Hi all! Haven't been on in ages, just caught up on where everyone is at; glad to see the mood is much more positive now things are happening! I went for a walk on Saturday and saw slabs going down in 3C, great to see some progress down that end finally (I'm in 3A and moved in 4 months ago) Re: landscaping, don't expect much at all..... 3A cottage lots only got a $1000 allowance - for me that bought 15 small plants, mulch, some retic and a tap timer. Big trees are expensive. I'd suggest getting them to do some bare essentials (e.g. garden beds/retaining), then add to it yourself over time. Hope everything goes well with your builds! Re: Avonlee Henley Brook Perth 2899Jul 14, 2015 12:06 pm Hi Elly, We got our soakwells through our builders (Dreamstart) because we were told the shire requires it to be done by the builders and not to be done by us. Hope this helps 22 Dreng Way, Brabham Land-25 May 2013 House-May 2013 Finance Formal approval -Feb 2015 Prestart -21 Mar 2015 Titles -22 May 2015 Land settled -15 June 2015 Slab - 9 July 2015 Bricks - 7 July 2015 Re: Avonlee Henley Brook Perth 2900Jul 14, 2015 12:17 pm hey Elly - Great news on your slab that's AWESOME!!! Our soakwells are also done through our builder. Hey Mortz - glad to hear you're in now. Our moods have definitely all shifted and we're still searching for what skills we have in here? What do you do to bring in the bacon?? 14 Dreng Way, Brabham Signed Land Contract - 29/06/2014 Finance Formal approval - 16/09/2014 Prestart - 30/04/2015 Titles - 22/05/2015 Building Permit - 25/05/2015 Land settled - Slab - Bricks - Hi, If you give a set of criteria as to what means 'good' to you, it'll give others prompts to respond. We considered Henley early on but there were two factors that… 1 10506 I am not sure whether Perth has its own way of doing things in regards to this. Most of Perth has class A (sandy soil), except for some areas near rivers or hills. 2 13098 1 11004 |
