Yes it is extremely.. slow without any reasons provided. I had been informed because of Covid restrictions, bad weather, lack of timber, materials and short of tradies and ....all sort of unexpected circumstances happened last two years. I am still waiting for the handover since April 2023 despite of the tender signed in 2020, 9 months of DA approval and slab started in Oct/Nov2021. Anyone would like to share your experience how to handle and manage to speed up the handover stage cause it has been causing so much pain and stress over last three years.
How much is your agreed liquidated damages amount per week? If its a significant amount the builder will be financially motivated to speed up if they can.
