Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Land titled! 186Jan 16, 2018 8:49 am We've been advised to go do an inspection. Not sure what there is to inspect really; our pegs are all in place. Though I do want the crossover fixed as it has already been broken, I assume when they were doing the works to fix the sewer issue. Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Land titled! 187Jan 17, 2018 7:52 pm Drove straight for work today to see what the commute will be like. 80 minutes wasnt too bad considering the multi car pileup and the ongoing freeway works. Surprised to find the whole thing has had a (bad) haircut. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ And mystery holes all over our block but no one elses...are these soil testing holes?

Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Land titled! 191Jan 29, 2018 1:49 pm We are settled at last Now to get a house built! Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Land settled! 193Jan 31, 2018 10:53 am My CSC has let me know that the plans are currently with the developer for approval. After that its: - drafting to do final plans - council approval - construction team to prepare - site start Estimate is 8-10 weeks from settlement so fingers crossed we're up and runnign by the end of March. She also confirmed that soil testing was all done. Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Land settled! 195Feb 02, 2018 8:48 am Tribe7 Congrats on your land settlement Blackcat I hope everything stays on task and you can get to site in March. Thank you. I really hope so, it just relies on everything being done in the stated time frames. Some of the grumpier people in our estate keep trying to insist that M is so hopeless it'll never happen on time, but I'm trying to be positive. But I'm also the type to keep contacting them to see where its at so theres no opportunity for them to slack off. Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Land settled! 196Feb 02, 2018 9:48 am Don’t worry about the grumpier people, there isn’t really a cure for sour grapes Your taking the right approach with staying positive and following every step up. I’m hoping for a March start too, fingers crossed we can be build buddies Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Land settled! 197Feb 02, 2018 9:54 am Tribe7 Don’t worry about the grumpier people, there isn’t really a cure for sour grapes Your taking the right approach with staying positive and following every step up. I’m hoping for a March start too, fingers crossed we can be build buddies That would be awesome I think the people having issues are all those on really small blocks, it seems to add complications to the process. My CSC just confirmed in writing that our plan has been submitted to the developer so she is definitely keeping things moving. Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Land settled! 198Feb 02, 2018 10:11 am Some of the block sizes these days are crazy small.
