Browse Forums Building A New House Re: First home in ellenbrook 102May 20, 2014 12:48 pm I will let you know at our brick meeting, I'm sure I will meet him. Did Shaun end up going to your brick meeting? Ben wont be in Perth, he will be working away.

Shaun wasn't able to get work off so I went alone. Wasn't that important. Just a chance to meet him and then he let us know what was happening next. Also made me check that the window frames were the right colour as well. I was literally there for 10mins.. Probably less to be honest. He's a young guy, kept his sunglasses on the whole time. I thought that was a little bit rude. Ashleeeigh Re: First home in ellenbrook 104May 20, 2014 1:17 pm Good I was worried Ben was going to need to be there. That's not very professional.

He didn't give me a lot of imformation so that was ok. I was really worried he was gonna bombard me and then id have to remember everything to tell Shaun! But it was fine. Yeah I thought that too.. Was a bit weird but hey, each to his own I guess! Ashleeeigh Re: First home in ellenbrook 106May 20, 2014 1:28 pm I'm glad they wont give me lots of information, my brain isn't very reliable at the moment. 4 and a half weeks and hopefully I go back to myself not an incubator Building in Malvern Springs, Ellenbrook with Aussie Living current stage: Locked Up Est Handover Beginning of Dec My thread : viewtopic.php?f=31&t=65509 Re: First home in ellenbrook 107May 20, 2014 1:35 pm Wow! That's come up so quick!! Fingers crossed your house comes up this quick too! Ashleeeigh Re: First home in ellenbrook 108May 20, 2014 6:01 pm I am honestly so mad with Aussie living!! I called again this afternoon as I still hadn't herd back from our CL. Finally got ahold of her and she was so disgustingly rude! When she answered it wasn't even a "hi how are you?" It's was just "hi". When I told her that I think we needed to re schedule she was like "yeah well I was just taking to the site supervisor and he wants to reschedule". I wasn't rude to her but I'm clearly pretty upset so I wasn't super friendly. I just said to her it's really hard for us to get days off and the days we've taken off tomorrow are a waste.. And she goes "well you can go to site if you want but it's not going to be finished over night" well obviously it's not!! Grrr. And then when I told her about the situation with the gas, she was said "yeah well the site supervisor will need to sort that out". By then I was furious at her attitude.. And just asked when we can reschedule to. I told here we are only free Thursday and she goes "ok I'll ask him and let you know, ok? Thanks bye" and hung up! So PCI is rescheduled for next Thursday at 3. I swear if they try to reschedule again I am going to lose it! Ashleeeigh Re: First home in ellenbrook 109May 20, 2014 9:18 pm Holy sh**! How rude, its not as if your getting into a truck load of debt to build with them. This is your most expensive assest of course you have a right not to be spoken to like crap. I know you aren't the only one having issues with that CL. I am angry for you. I hope it starts running more smoothly and your CL realises she's a cow. Re: First home in ellenbrook 110May 23, 2014 1:42 pm Hey Ashleeeigh, Have you had a power bill since building commenced? We think that they are using our power box for all three houses they are building. Which is okay, as long as we aren't paying for it. Building in Malvern Springs, Ellenbrook with Aussie Living current stage: Locked Up Est Handover Beginning of Dec My thread : viewtopic.php?f=31&t=65509 Re: First home in ellenbrook 111May 23, 2014 1:56 pm We got our first power and water bills in December so we have been paying it since then. It hasn't been much ($30-$40) as they class it as vacant land. If I was you, I'd be saying something to your site supervisor. Because if it's your power, then you will have to pay for it. Each site should have their own power anyway.. Doesn't seem fair that they are just using yours! Ashleeeigh Re: First home in ellenbrook 112May 23, 2014 2:17 pm Thank you they are using our power box for the cement mixer but doing two houses at once. The other house doesn't have a power box yet.

Hopefully the next 2 weeks flys buy for you Re: First home in ellenbrook 118Jun 09, 2014 9:37 pm Devastating news this morning. Got paper work from keystart this morning saying they will need at least a week to complete things from their end. This means we won't get keys on Thursday. I'm so upset. Myself and Shaun have taken time off work again and now it's going to go to waste. The worst part is that now, I can't take anymore time off work. Everything is already booked to get started from this weekend. I'm so devastated! Ashleeeigh Re: First home in ellenbrook 119Jun 09, 2014 10:43 pm oh that sucks!!!!!!
