I revised my upgrades and deleted some items i think I wouldn't need. When I started reading forums, I knew which one I should prioritise. At the moment we are still waiting to hear from our broker. electrical appt will be on monday.

Our contract date is now being set 4 weeks from tender to allow us to see the final drawings before we sign the contract. Since our land title has been delayed til march, we can afford the time. My admin and colour consultant were very quick to respond today to my queries and are making the corrections. Did you know all external glass windows and doors are single glazed?
