Through the council, you need to complete a form to get their details. Thankyou very much, i tried calling The builder the neighbours were going with and no luck, and coulnt get through to anyone at Willowdale. Thanks Using Tapatalk Re: Building at Willowdale 1008Feb 26, 2015 7:40 am myou RonyMay Wow so cool to meet our neighbours We have had our plans drawn we are going through a small builder as my bf is an electrician and wants to do the electrical himself, it is hard when you go with the big builders. Hard to make too much progress without the land registered but we have made quite a few decisions. Are you going single story or double? I know! This forum is great to meet our surrounding neighbours At least you guys have made small decisions! We're still deciding on what to do. Don't know if we want to go the owner-builder way or just use a company We still haven't decided if we want single or double. How about you guys? The good thing is registration has moved up one month earlier than expected. At first it was May-June and now it's April- May!! So exciting! Heaps excited about registration We are thinking double story but not 100% It is getting very exciting Re: Building at Willowdale 1009Feb 26, 2015 7:46 am PixiGT Hey raskar, have you seen Google maps lately...? Willowdale is booming! Sent using Tapatalk Oooo thanks for the heads up!

Re: Building at Willowdale 1014Feb 26, 2015 12:02 pm WillowdaleR PixiGT Redfernpoint I visited our site last Sunday evening and found a group of 3 access to every site and house along Jamboree Ave including display houses, I just hope that Willowdale has security patrol in the estate during the night. Hi Redfernpoint, There used to be 12hours of security at willowdale, from 6pm to 6am - that was as of last November, but I don't know if it is still going...hope so! I have the Eden Brae OnsiteEye camera on my site, & I haven't seen 'random' walk-through's to date (but maybe my site is known to have a camera..?) Have you lost anything/items missing..? Sent using Tapatalk Hi Redfernpoint and PixGT, I hope your builds are going well. I just got my OC last week (yay)! Anyhow I was moving stuff late one night last week and I got stopped by the security guard. So he starts later than he used too and not sure how long he stays there until- but at least he is there. As daylight savings kicked in last year I wondered if they were going to change the hours! Take Care R Thanks PixGT and WillowdaleR. Great to know about it.

Sent using Tapatalk Thanks PixiGT. It's great feature that you can observe your site and build progress, Eden Brae sure know how to win customer from other builders. I'm still in early stage, nothing is really portable for people to take (except the slab ) Re: Building at Willowdale 1016Feb 27, 2015 8:23 am Hi Redfernpoint, The camera definitely has been great - especially in terrible weather to make sure there's no storm damage during construction. I actually didn't know there would be a camera at my site at the beginning! I received an email from Eden Brae with the login details prior to commencement of construction, & I've been lucky enough to watch the build progress from there It's a relief to hear that nothing's gone missing from your site...and to know your slab is still there!

You shouldn't be charged extra by builder anyway. Mine was approved within 2 weeks. I was told that in normal circumstance (depends on which certifier/council and session), private certifier takes 2-4 weeks and council takes 6-8 weeks. Hope that help Re: Building at Willowdale 1019Mar 01, 2015 7:57 pm RonyMay Hi all, A question to those who have started to build, just wondering if you could let me know how long things took at council before you were given the go ahead to start building? if it helps we are looking at building a double story house Ours got approved within 3 weeks of submitting to council. Although I think we got lucky. Typically take 6-8 weeks. Having said that, if you have don't have to bear any extra cost for going through CDC and your plans strictly comply with regulations, then stick with CDC. good luck either way. I’m curious about how you went with this. We are planning a KDRB and considering Plantation Homes as a builder. I’m aware that after the demolition another soil test… 1 6326 i wouldn't be worried, you'll definitely miss something, no matter how many times you review. we've spent close to 5 months ensuring everything got reflected in the… 5 9453 Thanks for your reply. I will just wait and see I guess. Trying to get some more information from our builder. 9 11729 |
