Yes same but they said it's only extreme weather that they stop so fingers crossed we have some half decent weather to get the outside done then once they are inside the weather shouldn't matter I hope! Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 303Jun 05, 2015 6:31 am Well they said all docs etc will take 2 weeks so then out builder said within 5 days of getting required paperwork We go to palm cove in 2 weeks so it'd be great to come back & see something other than a lush green hill We were very lucky with council only taking 10 days but that was right when they came back from Xmas holidays. Look forward to meeting you all in person when we finally get up there!! Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 304Jun 05, 2015 7:58 pm So... Pre approval sent to builder today & looks like we could start as early as late next week as everything is ready to go!! If anyone is still having concerns with valuations, definitely look at Peoples Choice Credit Union, they've been nothing less than amazing with us & the valuation was the best, better than the big banks! If you want more details, send me a message & I can give you his name & info! Finally our dream becomes a reality Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 305Jun 05, 2015 8:31 pm Congratulations! You must be very excited!! We might have to have an 'estate/street bbq' lol Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 306Jun 05, 2015 8:34 pm We are it's been a long 11 months!! Yes definitely! That sounds like a great idea! Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 308Jun 09, 2015 3:04 pm Oh you lucky things! We are only submitting our loan approval this week - well, hopefully! Still need to wait for council approval to come through That's awesome news Jakki! So they were happy to cover your quotes from Masters online cart (I guess it's as good as an 'official' quote!)? Our build - viewtopic.php?f=31&t=77368 Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 309Jun 09, 2015 3:14 pm I was really hoping we would have received an approval letter today-but nope :/ it's taking alot longer for this first stage than the builder thought-they thought it would be last stage by now and be released to construction this week or next :/ Thanks-yeah I guess they must have been as nothing was said to us about them! Good luck hope they approve it quickly for you Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 310Jun 09, 2015 10:18 pm I am so excited to find this forum. We are also building in the saxon hyde estate too and eagerly awaiting some sort of movement to start there, it feels like it's just one delay after another. We have already picked a builder who is also keen to start. I am happy to see how many families are moving to the area. Our kids are currently 9 (boy) and 7 (girl) and I can't wait to watch them riding their bikes around and making new friends and to take advantage of the local markets for my weekend food shop. In regards to schooling we have enrolled them to go to Woodcroft college from 2017 so I am hoping to be in the house by then. It seems like a lot of people are moving from similar areas, we are currently in O'halloran Hill. Thanks for the advice that you have all provided so far, I can't wait for something to happen with our block. Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 312Jun 09, 2015 10:26 pm We have lot 23 chuckles so our back yard is facing the Devine estate with the creek at the back (no easements for us). Lot 1 means you can start building soon, that is great. We are still waiting on something other than a paddock. Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 313Jun 09, 2015 10:32 pm Yeah another reason for the move across to 1 was talking with the council they doubted Clem would have stage 1 completed anytime soon. We didn't have the desire to wait Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 316Jun 10, 2015 3:10 pm Hi katmeow01 We are building on the Devine estate and hope to start our build in the next 3 months but a lot of hoops to jump through before then it seems never ending. We also live in O'Halloran Hill at the moment what street are you in? Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 317Jun 10, 2015 3:33 pm Welcome katmeow! Have you chosen a house plan? Great to have more kids around the place for sure We are in Woodcroft at the moment - I find it funny that so many of us are coming from similar areas!

Hi Mahalia27, We picked the Vogue through Deschellis with a few changes. Hubby has big plans for an outdoor kitchen and pizza oven so I feel that there may be many pizza nights at our place. Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 320Jun 10, 2015 4:29 pm Ooh, outdoor kitchen and pizza oven sounds awesome! Hubby's uncle has one and it makes the BEST pizzas!
