Live in Googong Re: Anybody building at Googong ? 1729Aug 24, 2014 4:35 pm Hi Googs99 and Googong15, have you both chosen homes to build or bought land separately? We bought land and are now going through the process of choosing a builder/layout and feeling very overwhelmed. Every visit we make we seem to change our minds not to mention our budget seems to be ever increasing. We have found Ben at rawsons to be very helpful though and upfront with costs. We think we will choose one of their floor plans in the next week or so and go ahead with signing contracts etc. Re: Anybody building at Googong ? 1730Aug 25, 2014 8:38 am Hi Lwmtgoogong We bought a house a land package through Shaw, so the house was already set for the block. It worked out well for us because I don't think we could have ever decided on a plan otherwise. Shaw has been great so far, easy to deal with and really accommodating. I can't wait for the land to be released so they can start building. Re: Anybody building at Googong ? 1731Aug 25, 2014 8:58 am Googonians2014 First night in the house, cant believe how quiet it is out here. Kids were very excited. Now just to get started on all that landscaping That is awesome! Must be a bit sureal.. We have our first defects walk through next week - so hopefully there's not too much for them to fix and we will move in early Sept. Overall the build quality from Regal is very high.

Overall the build quality from Regal is very high. it was a bit, but I'm so happy with the house I absolutely love it we are still waiting on our kitchen splash back but that should be here tomorrow and our shutters have been delayed so boxes and sheets are our window coverings for now. Only a couple of things need to be fixed nothing too major, I'm just so glad to be moved in Hope your walk through goes well Re: Anybody building at Googong ? 1733Aug 26, 2014 4:05 pm Hi Lwmtgoogong, we also went with house and land package through Blackett. They have been great so far too. Make sure you check inclusions and allowances. I really like the rawsons oxford display home. Re: Anybody building at Googong ? 1734Aug 26, 2014 7:33 pm Hmmmm, it seems I went the silly way with land only decision, decisions to make! I think we are pretty versed on our inclusions with rawsons and happy with them. Almost certain on a floor plan to, just one last meeting to find out the final coast.

Whats the water pressure like? Also a question out of left field. Do you have good TV reception? AS I mention this to a TV aerial guy when they fixed up my current place. and they both did the look at each other thing. They said you would need a pretty big aerial to get good reception. Thoughts? Re: Anybody building at Googong ? 1736Aug 26, 2014 10:29 pm Hi Mr2psht your house is looking great its really starting to move along. I don't find the water pressure a problem it is a little bit lacking but nothing major. As for the TV reception ours is great not a problem at all, the guy that fitted out ours rang to let me know he was putting up the latest aerial that we will need instead of the old style I can't think of exactly what he said it was I think it might of been a digital only one. Finally getting my kitchen finished tomorrow can't wait to see my splashback and use my new oven I do enjoy the drama:-D In his latest two videos he has started bringing security guards to site, I am waiting for the punch on to begin lol 6 46217 Hey guys building a new place through a volume builder and just wondering if i should complain to the site supervisor as we just had plasterboard installed.
