Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 61Aug 14, 2015 10:59 am Really? Gee that's a while away! We have everything done so we might be looking as early as 28th of August and if that doesn't happens it will be the 11th of September so pretty soon for us hopefully. Just waiting on second soil test and survey to be completed Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 62Aug 14, 2015 11:20 am Lucky you!! All the best for the build ben!! Btw after settlement do we receive any documents from the state revenue office etc stating that we are the owners (along with the bank) of the land.. also did you guys get the PPR concession yet or will we be getting that once the build starts (similar to FHOG/stamp duty discount)? Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 63Aug 14, 2015 12:12 pm I don't know anything about receiving anything from the state revenue office have you received anything? In regards to the FHOG we got that approved and it went towards the loan Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 64Aug 14, 2015 12:16 pm No we haven't received any documents either. So over here how do we know that the land is in our name? like back in india, we get all the land transfer documents etc that state the ownership etc. Don't know how it works in australia. Did u get PPR concession (principal place of residence ) ? Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 65Aug 14, 2015 12:39 pm I have got a document from my convenyancer but that's it so far. I don't know how it works either as it's our first house. I don't know about the PPR either sorry I just know about FHOG and a reduction on stamp duty. Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 66Aug 14, 2015 12:47 pm That's alright ben. Thanks. Will speak to our conveyancer.

Building the Bermuda 23 (In Frame Stage) by Porter Davis in Livingstone , Cranebourne East Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 69Aug 20, 2015 2:11 pm hsingal Hey Guys , Thanks for the inputs on inspection. Any idea about the schools nearby ? Not sure if you guys have kids ..just looking for some suggestions Hi hsingal, We're currently building just down the road from Livingston; in the Pasadena Estate. Our daughter goes to Casey Grammar school just across the road from the Livingston Estate (behind the Indoor Sports Centre and RACE) She just started there this year. I would highly recommend it, it's a lovely little school. Good luck with your building and school hunting Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 70Aug 20, 2015 2:23 pm hopefully Moore, everything begins in time. Thanks JP79 and one question, now the fencing is gone, how to ensure that our land stays in good and clean condition and stranger don't dump things? Building the Bermuda 23 (In Frame Stage) by Porter Davis in Livingstone , Cranebourne East Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 72Sep 22, 2015 8:47 am Hey Ben. Hows it going? We just signed our building contract last week and are now waiting for the bank to do the valuation and unconditional approval thereafter. Also went and had a look at our land this saturday. The guys next to our plot have already started their build. Quite a few houses coming up actually in our estate. I'll try putting up few snaps here. Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 73Sep 22, 2015 9:10 am Oh nice I'm glad to hear it's all progressing well for u. Our construction finally started on our land last Friday so we should have a slab next week. Yeh I've been to the estate and have seen that quite a few houses have started and have already got there frames up. So looks like we are a couple of weeks behind them. Least it's good to know we will have some houses finished around us when ours is finished. I hated waiting to hear about valuation and unconditional approval but it is such a relief when it comes through. Wish you all the best! Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 74Sep 24, 2015 11:59 am We got our final approval of loan although valuation came low and had to shell in extra deposit but now all sorted . Builder is working towards final plans and council approval. Hope to start soon !!

Hsingal, you guys got a low valuation? That's scaring me so much now May I know how low was your valuation? Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 76Sep 24, 2015 3:12 pm I didn't mean to scare you off , also I am not sure about your loan as to how much LVR it is sitting on . Our valuation came 30K less and we had to pay more than half from our side and increased LVR , which means higher rate of interest . But don't worry every valuator have their own strategies. All the best !!

No you didn't scare me off everyone's valuation is different so just hoping we scrape through 😆 Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 78Oct 08, 2015 2:21 pm hello , How's everybody going with the build ? yesterday we went to see our block and saw quite a number of houses already in progress . we would probably be starting by next week.

It's awesome when you start seeing some progress on your own block, we had our frame start on Wednesday, should be done by end of next week. Yeh there is a lot on progress on a lot of blocks in the stage which is good to see our neighbourhood going up How did the valuation go MelbDreamHome? Re: Livingston estate Cranbourne East- porter Davis Vienna 2 80Oct 10, 2015 11:48 am Valuation went all good but we've run into problems with our bank on the final unconditional approval. Really don't know what are we going to do now. All the best for your builds to both of u, Ben and hsingal..
