Will let you know how we go! Re: KDR with Wisdom Homes-Aspiration 29 242Dec 04, 2013 9:39 am Aheron how is it all? Is your tiles mixup fixed yet?

We have since had a couple of other issues including the wrong stain colour being used on the stairs and upstairs balcony door which hopefully will be fixed on the upcoming days. Other than that,electrical has been completed, bath and toilets are in and the painters are nearly finished. So hopefully we can get to PCI in the next week or so to give us a chance of a pre Xmas handover How are you going? Re: KDR with Wisdom Homes-Aspiration 29 244Dec 04, 2013 11:25 am Apart from the slight issues, sounds like it's progressing well for you! Fingers crossed for pre Christmas handover. May I ask when did your slab go down? Trying to get an idea / benchmark against other builds. Re: KDR with Wisdom Homes-Aspiration 29 245Dec 04, 2013 11:30 am Hi j and j one minto The slab was poured on the 1st July, so roughly 5 months ago. I have included some key dates on the first post of this thread if you are interested at other dates going forward. From what I have gathered so far,it seems the builds in new estates such as one minto are much quicker as they have a few jobs on hand in close proximity for tradies to get to. Re: KDR with Wisdom Homes-Aspiration 29 246Dec 04, 2013 11:58 am Thanks Aheron. I've just had a look at your timeline! Our fingers are crossed for a pre-Christmas handover, around this time next year. We had our tender presentation last week, and have submitted a few changes. Hopefully we can sign it off within the next 1-2 weeks and have our colours appt in mid-Jan!

No PCI date yet,but hoping to get in contact with my SS today to get an indication of when he thinks we will be there. I think we may not be in by Xmas as still quite a few smaller things to do. Hopefully can have PCI before Xmas and then handover by mid jan. Onewheel-did you have to take out home insurance once you signed off on PCI?someone told me that but it doesn't make sense as you still don't have access to the site. Also-how have you gone with the pool and getting extra drainage? Transformation-do you expect much more action before Xmas? Re: KDR with Wisdom Homes-Aspiration 29 255Dec 09, 2013 4:28 pm We arranged home building insurance after PCI but before handover.....your bank might want to see this before you get your bank cheque to pay Wisdom at handover, ours did. Plus just peace of mind you are covered once you get those keys. Pool on standstill as landscaper can't come til week before Xmas. I want to put drainage along the fence line where the pool is, but we'll see what his days. Once that is done, we'll drain the pool and clean the lining again. Hopefully third time filling the pool will be the lucky number for us. We built the Wisdom Majestic 40 - moved in!

Did you end up getting PCI done before Xmas? Hi Trasnformation Unfortunately very little progress. We had our walk through before christmas which highlighted that a number of things need to be completed or rectified prior to handover. Since the chritsmas break, nothing has happened We expect the cleaners and painters back over the next couple of days and certifier to come early next week.. At this stage, no handover date, and from my calculations, it would be towards Australia Day... Has your brickwork recommenced? Re: KDR with Wisdom Homes-Aspiration 29 258Jan 09, 2014 7:29 am Sounds exciting Aheron Australia day is not far off:-) Have you finished packing yet? Once move in plz let us know ur findings/tips... Bricking started again yesterday. I noticed more brick were delivered roughly about 6 pallets. Let's see how they go this week and next week.
