Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Re: Commodore Homes, Whiteman Edge: Floor Dramas! 681Apr 18, 2013 7:45 pm It honestly takes a whole 5 mins for them to get you sign few forms and pass over keys. Id call as soon as you can see money is out of your account. Or call in advance and organise a day which is handy for you. Also you only need one of you to sign and collect (if finding time youre both available is too hard) as I collected the keys whilst DH was away last time Re: Re: Commodore Homes, Whiteman Edge: Hand Over 7am Tomoza 682Apr 18, 2013 8:16 pm Well what a day. Wife wasn't answering her phone because it seemed to have froze up all day and all her messages and voicemails didn't trigger through until after 5pm. We rang up the number that left a missed called it was the Site Supervisor wanting to do handover. We arranged first thing tomorrow morning. 7am for the almighty handover. It's been an enduring journey, a test of character, a mental and physical battle but the keys are just over 12 hours away. Would like to thank everyone that has contributed to this forum over it's journey. Obviously I still plan to update it and show the finishing touches, but our experience with the builder is almost over!

Re: Re: Commodore Homes, Whiteman Edge: Hand Over 7am Tomoza 687Apr 18, 2013 9:45 pm Thanks all for the well wishes, when I found out the bank paid the money today, I was trying to get in contact with the wife to contact C-Homes because I def wanted the keys before the weekend ideally anyway. So I am really feeling your pain Oneness. It seems so LeanneR we didn't even talk to the the CCA today missed her calls too lol just had the SS number on phone list rang it up and he is like yep handover made a time. He must of kept all my house keys on him rather than in the office lol! Wonder if we get a hamper basket? Prob not prob have to come from the office can't imagine him going there before meeting me at such an early time at the new house. Re: Re: Commodore Homes, Whiteman Edge: Hand Over 7am Tomoza 688Apr 18, 2013 10:13 pm Oh I'd be very happy if I can meet SS at my house or handover. Guess will have to wait and see. Ages away!! Haha I wonder what gift they give these days. I got a box hamper of gourmet goodies & my keys came on one of their key rings haha Re: Re: Commodore Homes, Whiteman Edge: Hand Over 7am Today! 691Apr 19, 2013 9:40 am AC good luck with the handover today mate - happy you guys are in now, its been quite an experience hasnt it. Nice and early handover, will you be moving your things in today? We moved in the afternoon/evening and then spent the weekend unpacking while hosting visitors, was a hectic week at work this week too with a few day visits up north - this weekend I may finally see some reprieve however. Hope they give you a nice little hamper!

Re: Re: Commodore Homes, Whiteman Edge: Hand Over 7am Today! 698Apr 19, 2013 7:04 pm 2 hours before we send the search party haha Re: Re: Commodore Homes, Whiteman Edge: Hand Over 7am Today! 699Apr 19, 2013 7:49 pm Anyway a brief update, last night when we called to site supervisor he said our house was ready for handover, What he meant was now that all the PCI defects had been finished, Not that he was giving us handover. I was like Umm where is my keys and he is like you have to get them from the office, I was firm and said I wanted them today lol. Anyhow with a bit of negotiations going on with the Admin, we negotiated a time of 3.30pm to pick up the keys. I went there and just parked in the spot I had reserved for me back at prestart. Went straight to level 4 and all the offices were like empty getting renovated lol! Soon found the lady I was looking for she gave me keys. No hamper however just a cheese board and salt and pepper grinder. Thank you again Simeon.. I will call my certifier for that. Have a good day 4 6721 Hello everyone, After some suggestions and ideas about how to put a concrete path around the drop edge beam area on our new build.
