Hopefully its a right decision. Hi viralpatel, Just wondering how settlement on your land from stage 4 went? All done? Pearz Pearz Re: Porter Davis homes 8874Jan 07, 2014 6:57 pm Hi All, Just wondering if anyone on here is all over the BAL policies. We are buidling with PD in Gisborne. Our tender is coming up in a week and I was doing some research on the vic planning site and from what I can understand there were some changes made to bushfire prone areas on 31 Dec. From what I understood we where in a bushfire prone area previously (the street on our map was covered in green) and it now looks like we are out of the bushfire prone area as it is no longer covered in green. Is anyone aware of these changes and does anyone know about these maps. Obviously a big win for us as we have budgeted about 6k for this but don't want my hopes to be shoot down at tender. If your an expert in this area feedback would be appreciated. Cheers Re: Porter Davis homes 8875Jan 07, 2014 8:14 pm ant22 Hi All, Just wondering if anyone on here is all over the BAL policies.

Cheers You can use www.land.vic.gov.au to find your property and get the property report which will tell you if you are in a bushfire zone.

Cheers I bought my block in September, I wasn't in a BF Zone when I purchased it, yet low and behold as soon as I bought it and I went to tender it had been rezoned. There is nothing you can do about it. So my advice to you is keep that $6k in your budget as a BFL because it will magically reappear.

Re: Porter Davis homes 8878Jan 08, 2014 11:17 am Thanks ant22, I stumbled across your post this morning and had no idea that the bushfire zones have been reviewed on Dec 31. I checked out the map and HOORAY we are no longer in the bushfire zone. Our previous quote came to over $7k for all that is involved in meeting the BAL requirements. YIPPEE much rather those $$ in our pocket thankyou! We are building the Drysdale 30 in Cranbourne East with land due to be titled next month.

Thanks, VP Re: Porter Davis homes 8880Jan 08, 2014 4:46 pm Just wondering if anybody has had any contact from their BCs yet this year? I know they only just reopened, and if it's anything like my work, probably have hundreds of emails and heaps to catch up on, but I haven't had a reply from mine for a couple days which is odd for her compared to how things have been so far. Three options 1 Ask the liquidator 2 Find another PD customer and ask the source of their report 3 Pay for new report 3 12357 Ask for references and speak to them.
