Building our first dream home in NSW
Thanks it's just nice to be moving since we had such a huge delay in the beginning. At least our first ss wasn't ****** when he said that once we are out of the ground it will fly.

I am guessing my PC is next friday, but i happened to see my SS on site 2 days ago and even then he still wont confirm when it is. He say "maybe late next week-ish" but i do a PC walkthrough on mg own first and then he will call us a few days later for an official one after the easiest stuff is fixed. I tried to push him as it is near impossible for DH to get time off and he wouldn't budge with even a range of possible dates! Re: Another Daydream 30 Coral Homes Build :-) 546Jul 01, 2015 8:37 pm OMG - yep, knew I shouldn't have checked! LOL JEALOUS! But it looks fabulous! And they got it all done in one day - impressive. LOL at the random drunk guy - during the day too? Your doors have been delivered haven't they? What about all the door frames and stuff? It appears there is no rhyme nor reason as to when/how things are done with Coral - our builds are nothing like one another!

No our doors haven't been delivered but that was one thing the ss said was that the doors would be started on Monday. We have a pile of timber which I'm guessing is the door frames? Lol otherwise I have no clue lol My build viewtopic.php?t=76386 Re: Another Daydream 30 Coral Homes Build :-) 548Jul 01, 2015 9:00 pm Holy batman look at you go!!! The cabinets look great, what's up with the random drunk dude? . Good heavens your churning through site supers, that's frustrating they can't give you a time frame, how are you supposed to organise your life? I haven't asked my ss about completion (I promised myself I wouldn't ) Re: Another Daydream 30 Coral Homes Build :-) 549Jul 01, 2015 9:17 pm Kitchen is looking great! What colour benches did you go with? Also I'm with tribe hahaha spill the drink guy story lol Re: Another Daydream 30 Coral Homes Build :-) 550Jul 01, 2015 9:17 pm Tribe7 Holy batman look at you go!!!

I haven't asked my ss about completion (I promised myself I wouldn't ) Yes I hadn't really thought about asking but we are having problems with the neighbours across the road who have decided they don't like us for some reason and have been writing nasty notes and complaining to our real estate. Anonymously but our neighbours told us it's them because they complained to them about us. We really have no idea what we have done but we just want to get out and of course the real estate is on our backs about letting them know so they can advertise which is frustrating because we moved into this shoebox while we are building so you would think the real estate would know that building isn't clear cut.

Also I'm with tribe hahaha spill the drink guy story lol In the kitchens we went with osprey and in the bathrooms we went with night sky. Drunk guy story isn't much to tell just that he wandered onto our block and he apparently looked homeless he had his wine bag and one of those sticks that they hang their bags on haha totally cliche. But he just sat down at the front and didn't move for a while sharpening his bag thing lol My build viewtopic.php?t=76386 Re: Another Daydream 30 Coral Homes Build :-) 552Jul 01, 2015 9:40 pm Shanniidc Cristyandpercy1 Mellywil [quote="Shanniidc"] Haha oh lovely so we can expect brush offs for a while yet then lol Frustrating but it's better than being given an unrealistic date and bring disappointed. We were told completion end of May to early June and look what happened!

If they have a problem what's wrong with them coming and saying what's on there mind instead of acting like a bunch of dobing school kids! Real estates are a huge pain in the bum, yes they should know building takes time and you have to wait for a move in date. You can't give them a date you don't have.

Real estates are a huge pain in the bum, yes they should know building takes time and you have to wait for a move in date. You can't give them a date you don't have. Haha that's what we said! We are nice reasonable people we aren't scary lol and we get along great with all our other neighbours. They complained about our neighbours dogs too so I guess they are just cranky for some reason because apparently they never used to be that way. And yes I'll be glad when I'm done with renting haha our real estate is great they give us a lot of work but yes this move out date is frustrating haha you would think our lease is up soon but it's not up until 18th August.

Fingers crossed your brickies finish today for you. Your cabinetry looks beautiful. I love a dark kitchen!

Same am so over renting it's not funny, still find it amazing our mortgage isn't that much more than we pay in rent . Oh I didn't think about them giving you work, best to play nicely then . You have ages for your lease you should be done by then but who knows hey? I was trying to figure it out last night, we are 9 weeks and the cladding and render goes up next week, plastering has started surely it won't take another 13 weeks to finish the house?? We have 22 week build time.

Re: Another Daydream 30 Coral Homes Build :-) 560Jul 03, 2015 6:03 pm Yay! We have a lock on our garage door, but not the front door yet - just a block of wood jamming it closed! I guess that means we're NOT at lockup and therefore won't get the next bill?
