Browse Forums Building A New House Cascade Q1 - Henley Homes with Mods 21Mar 23, 2017 7:17 pm I got an email from my admin letting me know 6 star and building permits were back. She also said they were ordering everything and my file will be handed to construction as soon as this is done. Just a little excited.
They provisioned $3750 for 6 Star but only spent $95 to upgrade the wall insulation from 1.5 to 2.0 and raised a variation crediting the balance back. After reading all the threads on here I was expecting the admin process to be stressful and drawn out but have found it to be the opposite. I left my first deposit on the 30.11.16 and should be at site start by 15.04.17. My admin Kayla has been great, I have made so many changes since colour, tender and contract that I'm up to Tender 7 and PCV 8. A good admin is worth their weight in gold.

I'm pretty sure we will have the same person. It looks like there will be a few Henley builds in our stages.

No admin which means no appointments it's starting to get a little bit stressful hopefully we have someone soon as our block will title in about 10 weeks =\ Re: Cascade Q1 - Henley Homes with Mods 30Mar 27, 2017 12:58 am cant decide I got an email from my admin letting me know 6 star and building permits were back.

I have made so many changes even some post contract. I am up to Colour Doc 6 and PCV 7 . I didn't make all of the changes at once, I must have driven my poor admin crazy. She has been very patient and quick to respond. It does create extra work because the change you want is sent back to colours to make sure it will work with everything else and then to estimating to cost it all up. I was happy to pay the fee. I did get an email on Friday saying that now my file is with ordering department and will be sent to construction soon and any changes going forward would incur a fee. So no more changes .

I had KS for my pre construction admin and she has been amazing, I was expecting it to be more frustrating than what it was. I signed off on the final drawings/variations on 1.4.17. My SS Reece was given my file last Friday afternoon and rang to introduce himself first thing Monday and let me know that site cut is booked for the 6.4.17 - very impressed they aren't messing around.

We also have KS as our admin, she has been great to work with. Look forward to seeing your build, we won't be far behind hopefully only a couple of weeks.😄 Cascade Q1 - Henley Homes with Mods 36Apr 05, 2017 4:08 pm Lexi1 Hi there neighbour, we're also building with Henley, Lexington lux q1(it was discontinued just after we signed, must not have been too popular).

Nice design, my friend built the Lexington 33sq a couple of years ago in Mandalay, it is a great family layout, it made me want to build with Henley. It has a nice community feel in Laurimar, I can't wait to move in. Hopefully all your approvals are through soon.
