We went through Keystart, their turnaround was great. Submitted for pre-approval and was told the next day we were pre-approved. Can't remember how long the wait for official approval was but it wasn't long. Their turnaround was fantastic despite the negative reviews. Haven't had any issues with them thus far and we are about to have PCI and send off for Keystart to make the final payment (hopefully their turnaround in this respect is still quick) I can't see clearly what it says on your plan, but if you have large 4WD's or SUV's I would suggest if possible changing the garage height to 28c instead of 25c (we did this prior to prestart though and got it included in the contract) Also depending on how much room you have from your boundary to the right hand side of the garage, if you have any large items needing to go from the garage out to the back I suggest getting a wide manual roller door instead of a standard 820 door (may mean extending your garage width wise also). We managed to fit in a 1100 wide roller door instead of a 820 normal door so is possible without changing width of garage. We wish we had more room to make it even wider though. Make sure you have enough powerpoints in each room, better to have extra than not enough. Looking forward to seeing everything take shape! Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense. I guess when you talk to a builder who butters up everything to look very polished, you get to start believing… 8 2222 thank you! do we need to get this or our builder before we commence new build on the block? 2 4419 Hi, did you get any money from insurance? if you did, does it match what you've already paid the builders? 3 5004 |
