Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 6124May 26, 2017 11:54 am Thank you guys for all your suggestion on "the Door". Its just door and not the size so I will wait for the color appointment! Congrats Mrs Llamas2016! currently having fun going through the USB. Our appointments are not until the walk through plan. Things we are waiting one :- 1. land registration by June end 2. Appointments 3. Update all internals 4. Construction loan comes through 5.Council. How are we getting ready for all this :- 1. No more variations to the existing floor plan 2. Get ourselves ready with "what we want" and what we can afford" before the appointments, even pick two possible colors and choices. 3. pray pray pary for no delay lol All the best to US. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 6125May 26, 2017 3:36 pm susan58 Thanks ozmonkeyoh, I have just paid the initial tender for KDR for $1500 for monte carlo 40 with designer facade no balcony. So from memory this is the same house as on display in ShellCove? I live down on the south coast, and have been through that house many times. Initially we were going to build a Monte Carlo, but opted instead for the Manhattan, but they are both great designs. Keep us posted of your journey. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 6126May 26, 2017 3:44 pm It is the size down, the original house we were looking at was the manhattan 44 but because we have an existing concrete pool and the house was three feet in the pool we decided to pick another design. I wasn't going to demolish the pool and build another, this design sits nicely. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 6127May 26, 2017 3:50 pm MandM+4 Finally had some correspondence from our developer. They said it's just having a final look over and we should have the approval back early next week. I think W is ready to go to CDC with it so hopefully it won't be long until we are all approved. Our BASIX energy score is 43 and the developer requires it to be 44, CSO has asked if we can get it amended otherwise I'm sure this will cost us. Best of luck for today MrsL, we're all excited for you! Building Monte Carlo 40- Wisdom homes Gee, the developer is certainly taking their sweet time. Hmmm, hopefully W can get your BASIX energy score over the line to help.

Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 6129May 26, 2017 8:45 pm So a very successful PCI and 2 happy owners! A few things we are still waiting on - alarm still waiting to get installed, tiling under the stairs, and our stolen taps to be replaced... But that's honestly about it. A few paint issues (but that's to be expected!), a few easy fixes on a couple other things... That's it. Extremely happy with our build. Handover booked for June 8. I honestly didn't get a chance to take any photos!!! We were already there for nearly 2 hours! Will post PLENTY on handover!

Haha We have everything booked (removalists, furniture and appliance deliveries, rental key return..) so I'm needed a smooth ride the next 2 weeks! Thankfully I'm away for work next week so it'll keep me from torturing myself by going past the house every day Building Majestic 40 - wisdom homes Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 6138May 26, 2017 10:33 pm So happy for you MrsL! Msjovi, the tiles look amazing. Love them! How come they are doing the flooring before painting?

June 8 is our pci date. Feels like forever. Did you get an inspector? Also did you bring the final cheque during pci? Reason i asked is our bank will be releasing our cheque to us before pci date so that if there's no major issue, we can arrange with WH for the handover sooner rather than later. Congratulations again! Your journey ends soon. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 6140May 27, 2017 6:57 am It's beautiful Msjovi. Knebel does a good job on kitchen don't they. Hopefully your not too far away from us in terms of pci date. I bet you're starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Almost there. Can someone please offer some advice? Im DESPERATE.
