Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Apr 03, 2015 9:21 am Hi
Just putting my first post out here we happened to go up to Oran park in late February for a look around went into the site office and asked casually about land and how the release all worked. Just struck out that day and there was one plot that had just become available in 10f release so we reserved it there and then with our $500. Still waiting for exchange it's been 6 weeks now but should be near to doing that now. It's been a roller coaster working out how OPT could work for us, it was a shot in the dark with a risk of losing just $500 and believe me we are NOT gamblers! So now my head is spinning....we due to have our land registered in November/December this year and have pretty well made up our minds what we want to build. The builder sekisui have offered us a pretty good deal and are happy with the first estimate they will hold the price we give them a deposit of $2000 now, until the end of the year then will need to pay another $3000 in a few weeks. So just trying to work out if should do this. Reading of the huge delays some of you have had with your registrations I think we should hold off a bit. Has anyone else done this and had to extend the tender and has there been a cost?? Thanks so much for any advice experience. Oran Park - 10e 10f 10g release anyone? 2Apr 11, 2015 7:27 am So we have chosen our builder or at least commuted $2000 to a builder for them to hold the price and get a good load of inclusions, it all feels a bit early to do this when we are so far away from getting out land registered though. Anyhow we have our first colour appointment today for 1 hour hopefully we won't be expected to make any decisions today!! I have also opened up a one note document to store useful info from here and inspiration pics on almost every aspect of the build. Hopefully I'm not going to get too obsessed with it all over the next few months Oh and we exchange next week...at last!

Oran Park - 10e 10f 10g release anyone? 4Apr 12, 2015 7:13 am Great to know there are a some of us in release 10 on here! I'm sure this will be a long process for us all but I'm enthused after our first colour appointment yesterday. I am absolutely stunned by the amount of choices in almost every aspect of the build and pleasantly surprised at the inclusion quality. We will upgrade a few things but will try and keep a lid on them! Re: Oran Park - 10e 10f 10g release anyone? 5Jun 16, 2015 12:56 pm I am in 10f and i have not yet fixed a builder and i am not going to the bank for finance. As per the current info on OPT website, 10F would get registered in APRIL 2015. So No Point doing all the hardwork as of now. Cheerio OB!
