Im just being realistic and sharing my experience that seems to mirror everyone elses. If theres one thing ive learnt from this process it is not to take any date or time frame serious until its happening right in front of you. Re: Porter Davis homes 14373Mar 02, 2017 6:36 pm lizbf85 Hurrow Naama At sales we were told we will be building in Feb HAHAHAHA yeah right!! They are ball parking everything, as soon as all the site stuff is done and approval from council is done then they basically book your start date and starts ordering things... can be earlier and can be later than what you were told at certain meetings with them.. what matters is to not let it go further than the final day of site start or you'll be paying extra for pushing the date. I'm hopeful our guy was being a bit more realistic then! Given we've got contract in April and the land titles in May even if it takes them a couple of months to get stuff through council and all the rest of it, there is still couple of months to sort anything else out before a theoretical build start in September. Fingers crossed anyway! Assume September then u wont be disappointed:) The gap could also be because of job loads. They have certain number of houses to start in certain months. They might b fully booked for months june july. Fingers crossed it happens sooner ! Yeah I'm working with September being the start date, as much as I think it could potentially be a lot sooner if everything goes smoothly I'd much rather be mentally prepared for it to be September if they don't. And as you say they probably have job loads to manage so maybe that's why they didn't try for anything earlier. I guess we will just have to wait and see.

Re: Porter Davis homes 14375Mar 02, 2017 6:46 pm nikil Hurrow we wanted to start earlier but they said they were fully booked with jobs until April so that's how we ended up with an April start date. We said right from the start that we wanted it to all be done as soon as possible, unfortunately with our block of land not being titled until May (hopefully anyway!) it was always going to take a while. Our appointments are all scheduled so that our contract should be in April, so hopefully once that is all done it will give everyone plenty of time to have a September start.

Perfect attitude, and most hurdles can be fixed regardless of how insurmountable they might seem at the time.
