Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Avonlee Henley Brook Perth 2192May 30, 2013 10:47 pm AC it shouldn't be a problem my address hasn't always matched the mailing address but I had the card and my name was correct. But if your worried if you have anything addressed to you at that address, maybe even something from the builder that proves its your address. Re: Avonlee Henley Brook Perth 2194May 30, 2013 11:06 pm Good news Chevnut congrats. We get our keys next Thursday so fingers crossed it all goes to plan. Already had a phone call to say it looks like our floors will be delayed a week so we might have to move in with no floors doh!! Re: Avonlee Henley Brook Perth 2195May 31, 2013 11:39 am Congrats Chev. We are hoping the paving gets sealed at the weekend. Had to delay the pool fence and grass til its done. The builder came to hang the 2 outstanding doors inside the house and guess what....some bits are missing so it is rescheduled for next Tues. There goes another end of nightduty without sleep and we want our dogs back. Kids are missing them. Well Bleh I gave telstra the LOC number and they had no idea what it was. I persevered and told her if innet are able to book prople in then she might want to go and speak to her supervisor because right now they are looking pretty stupid....lol. Anyway she got back to me with a date of 6 June. I couldnt take it but got one for the 10th June by NBN and then Telstra 12th June. I wasn't coming off that phone without an appointment. Had to make a quick decision on a plan I dont understand much about but itll do for the first month. All I know is that it is faster than ADSL. So Bleh thank you so very much for all your hard work. If anyone needs anything Im generally here so just ask. Should it be from minding kids to getting some bits when I am out doing the school run. I found it hard trying to run around with 2 kids trying to get things. Somedays I am sleeeping as I work night duty which is generally Thurs fri sat sun mon one week and next week off. Cant wait to meet up with everyone once we are all settled into our houses. Re: Avonlee Henley Brook Perth 2196May 31, 2013 12:58 pm Well Bleh I gave telstra the LOC number and they had no idea what it was. Eeep, well the number is used when actually lodging the new order with the NBN, but you would think front line Sales people would know about it. Either way, you order is in and you have a date! Looks like Ill be the last one to be up and running on it.

My advice would be to make a the changes and upgrades you want before signing anything. I'd also visit the builders showroom to see exactly what is standard so that you can work out what you want to upgrade or not before locking yourself in. During the build process make sure everything is in writing (email) and double check everything before signing. Other than that be patience as there will be delays. At similar stage, seems like all builders these days try to make some hidden money from site costs. Will know more as it proceeds. Try out maximising your initial costs… 1 29517 Hi mate, we’re going to be another couple of years before we end up building as decided to wait and travels around Oz in our caravan, so sorry can’t you really help… 11 104203 Wow thank you so much for all the effort you put in to this that's amazing.
