This week is looking nicer fortunately. Re: FIRST HOME – METRICON WINCHESTER 28 151Dec 05, 2018 6:40 pm We got bad news. Our handover date is going to be delayed..... 😓 M has their internal final inspection today and our house failed for completion. The issues raised by their inspector are actually issues pointed out by our inspector. Apparently site manager didn't rectify all the issues raised by our inspector. According to site manager, he will fix the problems as soon as possible and there will be another inspection on this Friday. But definitely not possible to have handover on Monday. I wonder how can a Occupancy Permit being approved before their internal inspection is done. I have to think of backup plan in case we can't get the house before Christmas. All my furniture is booked to deliver before Christmas. Headache! Re: FIRST HOME – METRICON WINCHESTER 28 152Dec 05, 2018 7:58 pm Kimmykim We got bad news.

Re: FIRST HOME – METRICON WINCHESTER 28 153Dec 06, 2018 9:18 am You shouldnt have too much issue getting keys before Christmas, assuming they arent big issues. Re: FIRST HOME – METRICON WINCHESTER 28 154Dec 06, 2018 10:34 am One of the issue is the bricks returns into the family room window have a bow in of up to 7mm within both side of the window frame and that has exceeded the Australian standard tolerance level of +/- 5mm. I have no idea how they are going to fix that. Re: FIRST HOME – METRICON WINCHESTER 28 158Dec 07, 2018 7:22 am Kimmykim Thanks everyone! Busy with my final packing and farewells.
