Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Byford Build! 29Jun 02, 2018 10:17 am KD1sthome Been quite the past few months; our finance got knocked back with keystart! Reasoning being: a couple defaults on an account from last year! Keystart have advised us everything else was perfect but the account with the default needs to be closed for 6 months from the last payment on it (this being july 17th!!). Although we were highly devastated we tried to turn this into a positive... more time to save = solar panels! 1 month and 15 days untill we can re apply, lucky we already have our building permit so settlement would be really all thats left after. Sorry to hear that KD at least it does give you more time to save for other things for the house 🙂 Re: Byford Build! 30Jun 02, 2018 3:16 pm Well done on seeing the positive! Things will get moving soon Re: Byford Build! 31Aug 30, 2018 10:31 am FINALLY got formal approval!! settlement date is set for 18th September so hoping we can get slab down before October; if not then 1st or 2nd seeing though we have all our building permits and what not. How long was everyone elses turn around time from settlement to slab down? cant wait to finally start moving forward! Re: Byford Build! 32Aug 31, 2018 12:32 am Congrats on getting formal approval, hopefully not long until you see some progress.

For us it was two months 4/5 to 9/7 Re: Byford Build! 35Oct 09, 2018 5:29 pm We have some progress! My partner and I went down yesterday just to see if anythings changed (we thought at most the block would just now be free of weeds ect) and were very excited to see this!!! Our supervisor told us the slab wouldnt be down until the 17th but after seeing all of this im hoping its done sooner! Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ 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… 7 17579 thank you! do we need to get this or our builder before we commence new build on the block? 2 10410 Hi, did you get any money from insurance? if you did, does it match what you've already paid the builders? 3 9563 |
