Id just call up council and ask to speak with the town planner looking after your DA. Then just ask them what the delays are and the issues and they will explain to you what they need to have to sign everything off. My town planner was really good but not sure how other councils are but worth a shot. The town planner reviews all submissions for the build e.g statement of environment effects, your house plans against any easements and zoning requirements ect. They will be the person who allows you to build and not build and will tell you specifically what they need. I had them tell one thing and got told another from H&H and I pushed and ended up saving a fair amount of money Re: Building with Hall & Hart Homes 1153Aug 02, 2021 9:34 pm This is a great post. Mark for my own reference. Thanks to all. HH Re: Building with Hall & Hart Homes 1154Aug 03, 2021 11:23 pm Hi all. Do you guys know how many projects does your site manager look after at one time? Or did you care about this before signing the contract? I heard they do a lot less than most volume builders. HH Re: Building with Hall & Hart Homes 1156Sep 15, 2021 6:44 pm Hi everyone, Making selections via Zoom appointments seems to be difficult. We felt like playing in the dark when we did a Zoom appointment with Beaumont Tiles as we didn't know what tiles were included in the H&H range. Just had to rely on what the Beaumont Tiles's person showed us on thescreen. Has anyone got a similar experience?

Hi, I found the first appointment hopeless in person as I was told to check stores out before hand and they couldnt tell me what was the included range. I ended up finding out during the appointment that the inclusions were gold range and it was any gold stickers, silver range was silver stickers on the tiles and red was upgrades. Check your tender for your tile range. Beaumont were very slow also in providing pricing and not having the style that other builders have, I would imagine it would be much worse via zoom! Re: Building with Hall & Hart Homes 1159Sep 15, 2021 9:11 pm Tiling selections in particular are best done in store as the colours on the website are never accurate. I found it was useful to go to Beaumont for one or two visits prior to booking the appointment with their stylist. That way you have a rough idea of what you need and only need to confirm it with the help of the stylist rather than trying to take it all in within an hour or so that they give the appointment for. [quote="NewHM2021":2z01wq14]Thanks Mia. We are thinking of delaying the selection decisions until their stores are open for us to go and browse the range.[/quote:2z01wq14] Re: Building with Hall & Hart Homes 1160Sep 22, 2021 7:34 pm Hi All, We are now trying to select the demolisher. We got quotes from Advanced Demolishing, Site Demolishing and Eco. Interestingly, Eco is about $7,000 more than the other two. Is this normal? Has anyone used the services from Advanced Demolishing or Site Demolishing? What was your experience?
