Rest of my contract will be ready tomorrow or Monday so we can sign Wednesday. Yay so happy something is happening Re: C Home Building Thread 423Mar 07, 2013 2:56 pm LeanneR I have prestart next week. I was ment get my floorplans/drawings yesterday. Surprise surprise i don't have them. Hope they come today!! I really need see my electrician since my prestart is days away. So this proof of funds what's that? Showing your savings or something? Are you paying for prestart yourself? If so at what stage do they require the money? Would be great to know before we go prestart LeanneR , builders ask for proof of funds as they want to know how much funds are available for construction before they proceed to this stage. In regards to paying for prestart, we asked prestart consultant if we could pay for prestart on the day, but the she advised these are to be paid after handover.

So must be that then We were also planning pay for prestart stuff next week. After handover works out even better then Theres few stuff ups with my kitchen. Things I have paid for but aren't there so im gonna have take bunch proof with me. Re: C Home Building Thread 425Mar 07, 2013 4:33 pm Congrats Leanne - something happening at long last. The funds would be before handover or they won't give you the keys Re: C Home Building Thread 426Mar 07, 2013 6:28 pm I mean at handover (after PCI) haha The more I look the more I find things that need amended. Something's are extra and some things are missing. Least its nothing structural but my gosh my prestart list is full 2 pages now Re: C Home Building Thread 427Mar 08, 2013 3:13 pm Did you guys get insulation in all your walls? We noticed on our floorplan in 6 star notes it says insulation as shown and its all around the house. Been playing with the drawings in paint to make kitchen and ensuite look exactly how I want so I can just get prestart girl to pass on drawings to drafting so they get it right. Only 4 more days after today. Was 5.5 weeks ago we booked prestart. Has gone fairly quick considering how far away it seemed back then Re: C Home Building Thread 428Mar 08, 2013 3:34 pm When our final drawings came back from drafting they only noted that we needed insulation on the one side of our external wall of our activity room.

Oh well bonus insulation all way around. I know north side is standard. What stage does 6 star energy rating get confirmed? Re: C Home Building Thread 432Mar 18, 2013 1:09 pm Craig & Jaydee - where you guys up to now?? We waiting for prestart girl to send us forms to sign to we can go back to drafting. We sent our rejection list (like 1 item) Thursday AM. Hopefully will get the forms soon Think plans come back from structural engineer this week then off to developer for approval then to council. So I'm hoping drafting is finished by time we have council approval so we can move into construction Re: C Home Building Thread 433Mar 18, 2013 2:06 pm Also how long between doing prestart & getting the papers to lock off prestart (confirm its all correct). So sick of waiting/delays!! Re: C Home Building Thread 434Mar 18, 2013 6:59 pm Hi Leanne , not much going on with us.. Still waiting for final plans to come back from drafting, apparently it will be ready very soon. In regards to recieving your final Prestart variation docs, it took about 1 week before we received the final Prestart docs to sign off, which I handed back on 19/2/13, and nothing has happened since then besides email from CA to advise job is with drafting and once it's ready we will recieve docs in the mail.

How hard is it to draw some extra drawers or delete some tiling. Its not like they starting from scratch Re: C Home Building Thread 437Mar 19, 2013 4:41 pm Tomorrow is one week since we did prestart and still no paperwork to sign off prestart. OR an email at all to let me know when I should expect it. Ive emailed 3x in past week. COME ON!!! I just want to get past this sh!tty stage Re: C Home Building Thread 439Mar 19, 2013 5:18 pm Tell me about it. Waste week of nothing happening. So depressing see my new neighbours having slab and house few lots up brickwork started. We put our lot on hold before either of them. I was feeling excited after prestart but now ive had no contact and my emails ignored for a week im back to being annoyed and let down I used always stick up for C homes. Not sure I can do that anymore Re: C Home Building Thread 440Mar 19, 2013 6:58 pm I won't ever build with them again they won me over while they had Andrew as site supervisor since then not happy everyone who built same time as me has keys or pci date.
