We hit a gigantic road block with the bank and everything fell over backwards, inside out. I don’t think it could of failed any harder than it did. The long and short of it was our application was not obtained correctly and didn’t not meet Australian Banking standards and our approval was cancelled, upon the bank re reprocessing our application there lending criteria had changed and it ruined everything. I was devastated and wanted to crawl under a rock and hide. We had to take a big step back and just breath. For all of you that know me know I love building it’s the one thing that really interests me so it was really upsetting to have to let it all go. So we sat back and spoke to different lenders trying to figure out how to port our land mortgage to a new lender and get it all happening again. Whilst we looked into this our little rental was sold and we had to move just before xmas (OMG I seriously do not recommend moving at xmas time with kids ) We received word just before Christmas from CBA we are all good to go and can move on with our build again. We then had to wait out the damn builders Christmas shut down arghhhhhh On the 12th of January I spoke to my lovely admin lady Mikaela to let her know we can get our show back on the road. We hit a speed bump when estimating had a brain fart and tried to apply a decent price increase to our contract, an email to our awesome sales man James and a return email from the director advising our contract will be reinstated at its original value really made my day. The director went out of his way to email us and it was so nice to be treated with respect and kindness. So then the wait for the contract to be posted out started and finally it arrived today. It’s all signed and has been posted back, CBA have been amazing and we have our valuation booked for tomorrow morning and are aiming for full finance approval late next week. That’s our story, warts and all. Holy sh*t it’s been a massive battle and I just didn’t have it in me to post up what was happening until we knew we could fix it all. I have been following a huge amount of builds in the back ground and I’m so pleased I can actively post again without feeling like I’m holding back on the details of our mess. On a exciting note our eldest daughter started high school, our 4th and 5th children started kindy one day a week and we got a puppy Thank you for all the kind messages too, I’m seriously excited to get this house started now Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ one signed contract ready to be posted Re: Emperor 310 - Bold Living - Scenic Rim QLD 129Feb 01, 2018 7:21 pm Omg thank goodness your back! I was so worried and I’m sorry you had a tiny bit of bad luck. Fingers crossed for you that’s it’s all behind you and upwards from now! How lovely of the director to email you personally.
