Thanks everyone. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 13294Nov 10, 2018 5:48 am One @One Is full height tiling an upgrade by any chance? Or is it in your package?

Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 13295Nov 10, 2018 2:22 pm One Manhattan52 One Does anyone have a charge for "additional cleaning for full height wall tiles" in wet areas? This has been added to our DEP but no one has mentioned previously so wanting to know if it's a common charge. I didn’t have this sorry! I am assuming you got your hydraulics variation back then? No, sadly. The current DEP isn’t complete, it’s so I can see what’s in it so far. I thought that was very quick if it was. My DEP took nearly 6 weeks from CDC Approval Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 13296Nov 10, 2018 2:30 pm becks81 Manhattan52 @becks81 how are you travelling? Thanks for checking in. Just about to sign off the electrical plan, we have made soooooo many changes that we’re now scared to sign off in case we’ve missed something. Everything else re: Canvas Quarters has been submitted. We found a couple of minor errors and details needing correction in our colour and kitchen schedules, got them amended but not sure if they would have caused problems down the track. No phone call from CSR this week but was told last week that council would look at our submission this week. Will ring council next week. Getting a little anxious as we tentaobooked our demo for next month which was 3 months post submission but we may need to move it. Not sure if Site Demolition charge a fee to move the date. Where are you up to? I think Site Demolition will be cool with that. I know I changed my date about 5 times due to delays.Eapecially because they work close with Wisdom they will be aware of this. We have our underground water tank sitting on the pad and Piering can’t start until it’s moved. Hopefully it’s moved Monday. If so slab is scheduled to be poured next Saturday. Our SS is awesome and communicates everything so extremely happy with that. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 13297Nov 10, 2018 3:27 pm I thought that was very quick if it was. My DEP took nearly 6 weeks from CDC Approval[/quote] My CSR told me DEP would be ready beginning of last week so I thought we would be able to finalise our finance by this week and then we would organise demolition and rental. Unfortunately, we are still waiting on the hydraulic variation and there were some errors in the DEP. As we get closer to Christmas, suitable rentals may be harder to find so we are nervous about that. Trying to decide if we should just sign on a rental if we see something now and hope W comes through...

If you see something suitable personally I would say lock it in. You still need your construction plans done and end panel Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 13299Nov 10, 2018 4:57 pm You will never get an exact lineup of timelines so it’s tricky especially coming up to Christmas.

This is why I am trying to find a rental asap, but if I have to wait for construction plans and end panel first before demolition, then demolition would not happen till next year. How far in advance are people booking in for demolition?

How far in advance are people booking in for demolition?[/quote] You can demolish at any time but if your bank has any interest( mortgage) in your current property typically you would need to wait until finance is approved to demolish. How long did your demolition company say that will take to demolish your place? Your constructions plans will be done after demolition because they will recheck your levels etc. Sorry what I meant by you still have const plans and end panel to go is there is a lot of dead time between demolition and site start. As said before if you see something suitable to rent I would lock it in. Can someone please offer some advice? Im DESPERATE. Because I'm completely and utterly exhausted.
