Hi,
I'm new to this site so I'm looking forward to reading other peoples posts and getting lots of advice, lol
So we are doing a knock down rebuild in SE Melb. We chose to go with Simonds and are building a Flinders (with a few alterations). Will share diagrams shortly.
We've been in the paperwork stage so far and have our Tender appt in about 2 weeks. Feels like things are going so slowly at the moment but things are getting done. Our first real visual today was the local council just chopped down a tree as per our request so that we can move our crossover. We are on a corner block and need to move our crossover from the side street to the front of our block.
I guess one of our biggest things at the moment is the fact that we are still living in our house and need to work out what needs to be done in what order so that we don't delay things. We'd like to avoid moving out for as long as possible to avoid extra rent costs. Would love to hear from anyone who has been through this.
My to do list so far includes -
Tree removal - Half done. Stump needs to be ground down
Demolition company - currently getting quotes
Crossover permit - waiting for council
Concreter - again waiting for council permit for crossover
Powerpit -
Rental property -
Abolishing of gas and elec -
