Our thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=67954 Re: Anyone building with MainVue Homes 575Jun 16, 2014 8:10 pm Ari Anyone still building with Mainvue or have all the houses been finished now? We've had our tiles laid and the start of painting last week. we just got our title and have our contract appointment at the beginning of July. I'm bit disappointed in MV as I have emailed them a list of question three weeks ago and was told there where a lot of questions and it would take a week to reply... like I said that was three weeks ago.

Resend the email. In my experience they tend to forget unless they answer straight away.

Resend the email. In my experience they tend to forget unless they answer straight away. Every time I ask I get " as there are quite a lot of questions, it will take me a while to get back to you." They did the same thing before the tender appointment. Waited til last minute, where I was even asking them at the actual appointment. They didn't even book me in for am electrical appointment, and just kinda sussed out what I had in mind for electrical changes. Then they told me to finalise everything electrical at the contract appointment. I already told him if I do not have sufficient time to review his response before the contract appointment, then I will be delaying it.... Re: Anyone building with MainVue Homes 578Jun 17, 2014 12:43 pm We didn't have an elec appt either. I just did an electrical drawing myself and gave it to the girl at my color appt, and when we went to tender the guy made a couple of suggestions. It's not very hard so didn't think it was a big deal. Ari that's great! Have you started a thread yet? - MrsT Brought first house in 2008. Renovated...a LOT. Built in 2013.

It's not very hard so didn't think it was a big deal. Ari that's great! Have you started a thread yet? I did the same. I just handed them a drawing at tender and then the tender presenter redrew it. Half way through the contract appointment I was offered an electrical appointment. Great to see my scathing survey answers have got them to fix their admin process. lol No I didn't start a thread. It feels a little late now The build has been going pretty smoothly. They needed to fix a few things after each independent inspection but nothing *too* major.

It also has the responses to my questions. It has been 3 weeks with no response from them. I'm calling them tomorrow to ask when I can expect a reply. I know it's a lot, but I want to be clear about everything before I sign the contract... Wish you all the best. Once you signed the contract, they will find millions excuses to charge you.
