Even worse when it's rent and mortgage and our bank has us on principal and interest - b&sterds! Is that just for your land loan Dougang? Or are they charging you principal and interest on your construction loan? A hard word to your bank might needed no way should they be putting so much pressure on you  Re: A vue of the pines on the Gold Coast 62May 06, 2017 4:20 pm Found your thread Bridgetwitch! Love the design you chose  just catching up & it's a pity that they won't let you remove certain things so that you can do them yourselves.... keeping everything crossed for your land registration in July! Will be following your build  can't wait to see it all come together Re: A vue of the pines on the Gold Coast 63May 06, 2017 7:18 pm Thanks Fleabee. It's torture waiting for everything to just start!  Dougang, what bank are you guys with? We got stuffed around by Westpac and are now awaiting pre approval with Commonwealth. I wanted to go with a credit union, but they changed their lending criteria just before we applied!  - B  A vue of the pines on the Gold Coast forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=87210 10 Sep 2016 1,379 QLD Gold Member Re: A vue of the pines on the Gold Coast 64May 06, 2017 7:25 pm  BridgetwitchThanks Fleabee.

Only catch with saying that is if you had to pay mortgage insurance then you would have to pay it again to another lender. It's not a pay once and it covers you by all banks it's a pay once to every bank deal. Disgusting and a complete joke. Make your bank work hard for you, write on there social media pages, email there complaints department. Be heard, no one should be treat like a number, regardless if your mortgage is 501k or 10 mil.

That's a real shame, you have been stuffed around. It really is a heartless world of banks out there. I guess it just doesn't always work when you play the "ill move to another bank" card on them. I think the personalised service of the smaller lenders work well to attract customers, but they still have to feed into the big banks to get their loans. Ours is a broker and they get their money from Westpac. Maybe keep pestering them and throw the logic book at them... why pay principal if the house isn't finished yet? More than that, they can get more money out of you with interest only in the long run.... Hope it works out anyway!

Also thought I would ask for some inspirational pics just for a sneak peak Re: A vue of the pines on the Gold Coast 72May 12, 2017 11:49 pm Still no contract... so much for "within three weeks" - it's been four now. Still no pre-approval from new bank. Still no pegs on our bit of dirt! Did get an email from HO with a standard selections handout, and more detailed info on one of the upgrades. And the message that I will soon be contacted re tile and colour selections. But I'm starting to wonder if this build will EVER actually start....  - B A vue of the pines on the Gold Coast forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=87210 Re: A vue of the pines on the Gold Coast 73May 13, 2017 12:53 am That sucks!
