Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building at Willowdale 666Nov 03, 2014 2:46 pm We are trying to secure a block in Willowdale and wanted to know if anyone has already purchased land that is due to register in Dec2014/Jan2015? If so, did they say when building/construction can commence and be completed by? Also do you mind me asking how much Stockland was asking for land deposit? I know they say 10% but I've heard that they can often negotiate especially if it was purchased through a builder. Re: Building at Willowdale 667Nov 03, 2014 2:53 pm My land is registered and settled but we had to put down $1000 for holding deposit then $9000 more to secure deposit Re: Building at Willowdale 668Nov 03, 2014 3:13 pm Mardon We are trying to secure a block in Willowdale and wanted to know if anyone has already purchased land that is due to register in Dec2014/Jan2015?

No negotiation possible in my terms (contract) regarding the 10% deposit requirement, as stipulated by Stockland. Good luck with it!

You mind me asking if you got your land separately or was it part of a H&L split contract? Which builder did you get? Also anyone managed a block of land from the release that is registering in Dec/Jan? If so, did your builder state when and how long the construction will be? Re: Building at Willowdale 671Nov 03, 2014 4:13 pm Also a separate question to everyone...anyone with a completed build? And how do you find the location? Is it close proximity to the proposed leppington station and m5/m7? For those who live nearby, how do you find the schools and day cares in the area?

Re: Building at Willowdale 677Nov 07, 2014 8:45 am Hi everyone!!, My partner and I recently bought an Eden Brae H & L package.. Sheffield 27.. Land registers in April so fingers crossed completion by Dec 15.. In regards to the land deposit, Stockland increased the exchange amount from $10,000 to $15,000 for all of stage 3.. We have not had our internal colour meeting yet and just wanted to get some feedback on the floor tiles? Is the standard range decent? Does it come much to upgrade to larger tiles? (500x500)?
