They've finally opened up the connecting road between my section and yours now on Clementine Approach. Your house is looking great! Such a good little park which is nice and close too.

Looking forward to the new entrances onto Jandakot and Solomon whenever they are completed. Re: HGWA in Calleya Estate 348Dec 08, 2017 1:16 pm No idea. Are they starting the Retirement Village now too? HGWA in Calleya Estate 349Dec 08, 2017 1:19 pm When I moved to Atwell 20 years ago I was in the first stage. I remember the real estate telling me that the are was going to become a huge town centre in the future with stadiums and a massive shopping centre. I thought he was just saying that to get me to buy the house. 20 years on and I think it has probably even surpassed what he thought would be built. @Madora Dreamer Re: HGWA in Calleya Estate 350Dec 08, 2017 2:37 pm There is a primary school, retirement village and shopping centre going up on the main strip. I believe they're starting the shopping centre portion at the moment by the looks of it. I vaguely recall the land agent saying a lot of it had been already been locked in for leasing Find my build thread here: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=88694&f=31&p=1729530#p1729530 Re: HGWA in Calleya Estate 351Dec 08, 2017 3:21 pm It is so busy now! One of the reasons I am leaving. @Madora Dreamer Re: HGWA in Calleya Estate 353Dec 08, 2017 4:59 pm So the end of the 4th week of fencing promises and still no sign of a fence. Have sent another stern email to the fencing supervisor asking for an explanation and a definite date. Really starting to get annoyed now. On the good news front, have sent the final invoice to the bank for processing. Broker is escalating it through his bank contacts too so hopefully inspection will be done ASAP and final payment released shortly after.

But I have been through the house so many times during the construction that most problems have been identified and fixed already. I am quite sure there are only very minor issues remaining. Nothing that would hold up me signing off on the final payment. The independent inspector from HGWA has been through already too and he has only identified a couple of minor painting chips to be fixed. So I feel confident to sign it off early. Means the bank will get their inspection done and payment processed sooner rather than later. And if by chance we find any major issues on Tuesday I can still put a stop to the bank payment if required. Re: HGWA in Calleya Estate 358Dec 08, 2017 6:01 pm My concreter turned the fencer away on Monday. He better come back! Re: HGWA in Calleya Estate 359Dec 08, 2017 6:05 pm Don't count on it, CalleyaBuild! We were put off 3 weeks in a row by the fencers (despite reassurances it would be done each week) and then they came on the day the pavers were paving down the side of the house and of course got sent away. They were supposed to be back this week but no show again. Now they are saying they "will see" if they can put it in before we move in. Not impressed at all. Wondering if a phone call to the land developer would be in order?? Re: HGWA in Calleya Estate 360Dec 08, 2017 6:07 pm If they don't come on Monday, yes. We are living in the house now so I want it right away! |
