@Hjr_11, Yes Ritchie from Shade Elegance installed Blinds at my home and He wasn't cheap but his work/quality of Blinds was good.

There is a home from THE AVENUE RELEASE for sale. Habitat town home that sold for $738,000 on release is now up for sale with a price guide of $785,000-$815,000. Pretty decent profit made in 10 months.

Was the Avenue collection the one just after Greenbank collection?

Fairwater Buyer · Apr 19, 2016 4:52 pm

Yes the avenue collection was just after the greenbank collection.

Hi Fairwater Buyer!

Thanks for posting the information about the Habitat home. I know this is not the first buyer who has decided to sell and has marked up the price for a profit. I hope this is not intentional because there are many sincere people who genuinely want to live at Fairwater but have been unsuccessful at securing a property.

Have you managed to get a property?

Warm regards

Kevin

Oh thats not very pleasant experience. But you are one of the lucky ones to do the pre inspection earlier than expected. You must be very excited to move into your new house. Do you mind me asking how long is the process now after the inspections until you can move in ?

Actually we have also put in a deposit with one of frasers property. Just want to have an idea.
Thanks and congrats again.

Hi guys

Has anyone moved into a Habitat home yet from the previous collections that have settled? If you have, are you able to post some photos of the layout downstairs?

Thanks!

What is the communication they have had with you? Just general email saying the settlements have started for your release?

They sent a letter initially stating that Pre Settlement Inspections will be around 1st and 15th May...but when I called them they said it would not happen untill mid May...but it was not confirmed.

@Navman: Since it will be 15 months past the date your contract was signed (Jan 2015) , will you be paying your stamp duty before your property settlement?

My solicitor had told we had to either pay stamp duty at settlement or 15 months from the date of contract which ever occurs earlier.

Yes I'll be paying it by 30th April 2016....Filling forms at the moment. Confirmed my address from Customer Team my lot 1125 would be 14 Buckley Aveneue.

DASI · Apr 22, 2016 3:12 pm

if your 15 months is up before your settlement date then you have to pay your stamp duties before settlement, or else you start to incur interest on a daily basis. Not sure of the rate. This is what our solicitor told us.

Thanks for responding. The Address seems to be different from lot numbers - the premier collection houses seem to have the same address as lot numbers.

Also do you guys have to access the lakeview properties from the fairwater boulevard or are they going to open the road in front of the display homes?

We might need to pay ours by August 9th if we do not settle before that.

If the lakeview homes are going to continue settlement until end of May I doubt them settling any Greenbank homes in June as they have stated in their update!

Yes agree, my solicitor has already sent me a letter saying to have the stamp duty funds prepared and delivered in bank cheque format to their office by 1 August (although it is only due on 9 August)...I just checked the letter again and it says "if stamp duties are paid after 15 months time then the interest rate is 10.75% p.a on a daily basis..Should you prefer to pay the stamp duty on settlement (if within the 15 month period) please advise our Office of this matter but bear in mind additional charges may be applicable".

I have a funny feeling the next update we receive will state that greenbank collection settlement will commence from July onwards

Binca · Apr 22, 2016 3:38 pm

We might as well pay the stamp duty on time.

Ha ha yep true, I'm sure they'll say July in the next update.
