What is the refund for blackcat? I have seen a few other posts about refunds but not sure of the eligibility... We should have paid a reduced amount due to land price and being first home owners. But our conveyancer forgot to put the forms in, so we paid more than double what we should have. Took a lot of convincing to get them to apply for the refund and it has finally been approved.

Oh that is great news that it finally came through - seems like everything involved with building is a hard slog! Bummer, we are not first home buyers so probably won't be eligible for any discount/refund Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Expected site start May 9 447May 08, 2018 1:43 pm Here's hoping we start tomorrow as scheduled.

More money for variation upgrades for the build. Ha definitely not. Our budget/loan was based on paying the correct (lower) amount of stamp duty, so this money is already spent. Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Expected site start May 9 450May 08, 2018 3:52 pm How does first home buyers grant work? We never got that when we built our first home. We missed out cos it came out afterwards. I want to know for my daughter who has a house and land pack? Broker was hopeless with explaining it to her. viewtopic.php?t=86597 Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Expected site start May 9 451May 08, 2018 3:57 pm Doulton777 How does first home buyers grant work?

Will I get some sort of notification that they've started? I did notice they updated the site manager name in the My Metricon portal.

Once you go there you will see things done. viewtopic.php?t=86597 Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Expected site start May 9 457May 09, 2018 6:29 pm Drew01 Our slab prep started before I spoke to the slab construction manager... Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Expected site start May 9 458May 09, 2018 6:32 pm Site supervisor name in the portal changed again. No idea if they started today as we can't get there till tomorrow. Re: Metricon Winchester 28- Expected site start May 9 459May 10, 2018 11:47 am You honestly couldnt write about this. I know construction kicked off yesterday because I just received a notice to comply from the council. M failed to apply for the asset protection permit! So everything has to stop till that is sorted They were also meant to hand us to a construction manager but didnt, so we've had no contact from the people that should have been in charge. Now waiting for a call back but feeling ridiculously stressed that they cant seem to do anything right.
