We could walk to our lot, well - roughly, since there were no lot numbers, but we could guess where it should be. Almost everything seems to be done now except about 2 streets worth of final asphalt. We have seen also NBN termination boxes in the ground, after the tree park while walking in. Here are some pictures which we took. Staying at the top left corner of the tree park looking down direction lot 12,13, etc... Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ This is same location as above, just turned to the right looking at lots 11, 17, etc. You will notice at the bottom right corner 3 concrete covers. Those are the previously mentioned NBN termination boxes. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ This is staying at lot 73 and looking up to the tree park. The white truck in the background was watering the grass stripe beside the curbs.

This is located roughly at the location where lots 56, 79-81 should have been. No idea though what happened to them. After we walked back to the car, we received the email update from Helen with the revised / confirmed dates. To sum up, it is looking good for now. Frank Re: Aurora Estate - Alex Avenue - Schofields 77Feb 08, 2015 9:06 pm Hi Frank, Wow... it's all happening !! We are on Lot 57 and the water ponds ( or drainage reserve) worries me. I hope it does not have negative effect on the valuation of our property. - Anushka Lot 57 Re: Aurora Estate - Alex Avenue - Schofields 78Feb 09, 2015 7:08 am Hi Anushka, I was happy to see the progress, especially when I compare it to the very beginning when we signed the contracts. Unfortunately, I don't know how the water pond influences the property value. It is perhaps a good idea to give Rawson a call and question it a little bit. Especially that you have bought the property based on facts which have been communicated through the brochure's plan, salesman and contracts and nowhere was mentioned a water pond near your lot. It could well be that this is only a temporary thing.
