Security is an essential part of every home so I think I will spend in this area. --------------------------------------------- Building a St. Tropez 25 - Boutique Homes Aurora Estate Wollert - Victoria Re: Boutique Homes 1780Feb 08, 2016 7:14 am JP79 Absolutely heartbroken right now We got our keys on Wednesday, started moving some stuff in and sometime (we think) on Thursday night, some arsehole(s) have broken in, ripped our oven out of the wall and dumped it on the dining room floor and made off with our microwave The house had been sitting like it was for nearly 3 weeks and this happens the very next day after we take ownership......devastated Hopefully there's been no damage to the oven and it can just go back in (after some repair work to the cabinetry). Oh geez - really sorry to hear about that JP79. That sounds like it was an inside job, if you know what I mean... =/ Seems particularly strange given that it was sitting like that for nearly 3 weeks, and yet the day after you get the keys... yeeaaah. I'm getting my NBN connection sorted out BEFORE I get my keys for this very reason, so that I can go and install a wireless security camera or two on the day we get our keys, as we know that we won't be moving in for a few days afterwards, and want to make sure there's no 'inside information' type stuff happening. At least, if someone does break in, we'll have all the security footage for the police to show. 10 15745 Ask for references and speak to them.
