Looking forward to follow your journey unfolds. Are you doing KDR? Hi Boysenberry Not a KDR, we purchased land first but it doesn't title until next year. So we have a lot of time to select a home Metricon - Duxton 39 14Sep 30, 2015 12:17 pm sunxiaoxuan23926 Once again, great selections Emma. When are you signing contract? They booked us in 14/11. Apparently it will be 3 hours . I think I will request a copy before the day. Did you discuss your site cost further with M? My land is only 400sqm. Really flat . I don't know why the sales consultant said it can be fixed st 16K. At delaray , do you know if you have to pay bushfire Levi 4000? Hi Sun Our date is December. I'm hoping we do get copies before the date as well. But we have every right to not sign if unhappy with it. Ours is fixed under 16k as well due to land being flat, But hoping to not get unexpected costs at the time. It originally was 18k plus but head office sent us a reduction price of under 16k. As for the fire they haven't put it in yet because they are hoping the surrounding properties will be established and we won't need to pay. But we've still added that to our budget Wow not long for you now. When is your 6 star energy rating appointment? But mind you if you didn't make any structural changes your fine we made many Re: Metricon - Duxton 39 15Sep 30, 2015 10:59 pm Wow not long for you now. When is your 6 star energy rating appointment? But mind you if you didn't make any structural changes your fine we made many [/quote] Hi Emma , I didn't know there is a 6 star energy rating ? Maybe because my house is not 6 star? I think it might be 5 ? Lol . However I do remember our sales consultant told me that I might have to pay to make 5 star energy compliance or something like that. we increased ceiling height , and changed a window to stacker door. I have facebooked Park Edge Facebook and asking about stage 7 status . They said due to the bad weather we had lately, land won't be ready until Dec. it supposed to be ready by Nov. so there you go to our first delay. Giving Christmas and new year . I think most likely it won't happen before end of Jan. Re: Metricon - Duxton 39 17Sep 30, 2015 11:16 pm sunxiaoxuan23926 Wow not long for you now. When is your 6 star energy rating appointment?

We have until March. And land titles June!!! Work that one out hah However we did say we'll come back December and start, so they allowed us up until March. 9 months they agreed too. So I hope for a speedy process for land titling. I see our estates starting ready for stage 1 & 2 then it's our turn About ratings our SC mentioned it to us when we enquired about double glazing and then he dropped that bombshell about energy ratings. (In our heads thinking) oh no More expensive We're Ready to delete Windows if that's the case lol Re: Metricon - Duxton 39 18Sep 30, 2015 11:29 pm I'm also scared it will be too hot in Jan that tradies won't work . Lol . We have time until May next year. Tradies has to be on site by May or we have to pay 900+ per month . How much is double glazing with Metricon ? We are not getting cooling system now so maybe double glazing will help? Re: Metricon - Duxton 39 20Oct 08, 2015 7:37 pm Hi Emmz, just popped in to have a look at your thread, love your house plan and colour selections, makes me more excited for our colours appointment!! FYI, I've been told $6500 for double glazing. That is the allowance amount and I was told ours would be the maximum but depending on no. of windows and sizing etc it could be less...
