Just received our fixing invoice ouch! Certainly a big hit but means we're close to the finish line, only 5% left to pay. I been following this thread. Not too long ago you were stressing out that you haven't got your start date.. And wow now you are at the finishing end. Very fast. Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Fixing 723Jul 31, 2018 7:50 pm Drew01 blackcat20 Our portal says that we are scheduled for lockup completion tomorrow. They were waiting on a new lintel for above the back door to finish off the last few bricks. I guess i can expect an invoice soon. Fixing is scheduled for today! Does anyone know if that means all my sinks will be fitted? https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?url=ht ... are_type=t Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Fixing 724Jul 31, 2018 7:53 pm blackcat20 Kimmykim blackcat20 Well we have stairs.

Does anyone know if that means all my sinks will be fitted? We got our fixing invoice before shelves, bench tops and sinks... Bench tops went in on Friday, not sure about basins, etc as I believe they paint first We too got our fixing invoice but benchtops sinks etc have not been fixed. We were informed they will be fixed after filing and painting. What did you do Drew and blackcat? https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?url=ht ... are_type=t Exact same thing happened to us today, I said I'm not paying! Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Fixing 726Jul 31, 2018 9:19 pm We've authorised payment, I have no issues with it. Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Fixing 727Aug 01, 2018 8:21 am Due to the overcharged stamp duty our loan is slightly short of the final amount required (even though we were approved for more than we needed). We got the refund into our offset so I guess they have to sort out how to pay that when the time comes. Booked in our fencing yesterday; left neighbour agreed to the quote I got and I've sent a fencing notice to the right neighbour. Worst case we'll just pay for that side as we have two dogs so can't be without a fence. Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Fixing 729Aug 02, 2018 10:56 am Hi Blackcat20, Did your bank do a valuation before releasing progress payments? Our first invoice is due early next week and my bank just informed me that they might have to do conduct a valuation before paying the base invoice. So I am little confused.

Our first invoice is due early next week and my bank just informed me that they might have to do conduct a valuation before paying the base invoice. So I am little confused. I have no idea, sorry. If they do it hasn't been mentioned to us. I'm not sure it would be a valuation as such, just a check that the work being invoiced has been completed.

Just spoke to my bank again and you are correct they just check where work has been done. Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Fixing 732Aug 02, 2018 2:21 pm Apparently our lock up and fixing inspections were done Tuesday so just waiting on the report for that. Hopefully I get an update from the SS before the week is out. Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Home Straight 735Aug 02, 2018 11:01 pm So cool !!!!

Congratulations 😀 Thank you. Absolutely thrilled with the progress. Our inspections have been a bit of a waste as everything has been such great quality, but I'd rather have them than not. Plus it means photos when I havent had a chance to go look for myself. Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Home Straight 740Aug 03, 2018 8:38 am blackcat20 shokel1975 Looks great!!

Plus it means photos when I havent had a chance to go look for myself. It’s definitely worth the piece of mind to have them. I hope the rest of the build goes as well!
