Update is: we need a find a new block. Nothing to do with soil, footings or retaining walls but due land settlement being extended AGAIN! Potentially looking at another year or longer to be in our houses. Options were to find a new block, wait for land settlement or buy established and after all this time and effort we weren't going to give up so easily. We have our eye on a few blocks so wish us ALL luck Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=63784 Re: Mt Barker SA build - Grandview 27 - More settlement dela 91Jun 26, 2013 8:45 pm Was waiting for this post.... Totally understand your decision, you guys are ready to get going... Another delay is not going to work for you. Lots of luck being wished for you!!

We are still waiting for the official letter but the builders have already been informed so the word is spreading. Ally, you know we will only be 5 minutes away so don't think you can get away from us that easily! That said, depending on the price of the retaining walls on our preferred block, Alex (aka the one who thinks he gets final say) is quite willing to walk away from the whole idea of building so keep your fingers and toes crossed that it all works out!

Fingers crossed! Yeah, I'm still just a skip away... Still your neighborino! Well there's lots to think about I guess, but it would be a shame to have to walk away from it all this far in... Hoping the quotes of the retaining & site works are decent enough and you can get your way!!
