Site Demos are charging us $400-500 for sediment control. Our slab won't go down for at least another 2-3months. We thought we had to pay for sediment control until Wisdom took over.. hmm In the time between the demolition and you go into Production with Wisdom you are responsible for Sediment Control. At my property it rained, the neighbour called the council and when I discussed with Wisdom I was told in no uncertain terms I was responsible, I watched a Youtube clip, went to Bunnings and bought the stuff and did it myself. The way the rain has been lately its probably best to get it dome prior to any issues arising. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 13575Dec 05, 2018 9:43 am doosra singalg @doosra, thats what I also found - everything seemed to slow down significantly. The house has been ready since the last 3 weeks, but its the things that were found during Wisdom's own quality checks, paint touch ups, several rounds of cleaning, giving the last final touches that have taken time. Regarding PCI defects, none of them are major to stop us from moving in - so no issues there. In general, we are very pleased with the quality of build. The 2 big defects from PCI: we are also getting the shower screen in ensuite replaced to frameless shower. For missing power point, they could not put it there because of metal in that corner, and have placed it at an adjacent wall. All appliances getting delivered and installed this week. So did they replace the shower screen before handover of are they completing some works post handover? We requested W for an early handover, and then continue with works post handover. For e.g., Driveway is yet to go in, and shower screen to be replaced Maj-35 Tend:14/7/17,Cont:18/8/17,DA:9/1/18,DEP:1/2,Const:8/3, Slab: 28/3,Frames:17/4-23/4,Bricks:22/5-14/6,URoof: 29/6,elec:4/8,AC,GRoof:11/8,gyp:24/08,Keys:4/12,move:16/12 Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 13576Dec 05, 2018 9:58 am singalg doosra singalg @doosra, thats what I also found - everything seemed to slow down significantly.

We may have PCI on 17th Dec, so I want to know what all needs to be done before handover TIA Hi Kvav27, We were also quite overwhelmed as not knowing the unknown as what will be the process from PCI to handover. We completed our handover today, and are very delighted!! and plan to move within next 2 weeks! I found process fairly simple - it was basically dependent on 2 things: - Final inspection by private certifier (SBAC) - Final settlement of account First one was done within couple of days of PCI, and we did account settlement today for handover (there was nothing else that I am aware of)! We had our PCI scheduled last Tuesday and got handover today. Since ours was a KDRB, I figured also did not need an Interim Occupancy Cert, as it is generally required for council if they need to provide new bins (for e.g. in case of new developments). Hope that helps. singalg . Thanks for the details. One more question, For Final settlement of account, when did Wisdom gave you invoice? and how long did bank took to release payment?

Hope that helps. Wow only a week from PCI to handover. That's awesome. I wish mine would be that quick. I don't like my chances as the final parts of my build and trades to get me to PCI were really slow so I'm wondering if it'll be the same to fix defects from PCI. Hope my SS can pick up the pace as he's expecting a baby so hope house is done before the arrival. The clock really starts now for when my pci starts because they gave me the keys to tile my house and I advised them today I completed it so trades can now be booked in. doosra glad to hear Wisdom agreed to give keys before handover for you to finish Tiling. I will know by this weekend if we will have PCI.When does Wisdom share last Invoice? I guess Banks need a week to give the cheque?

TIA Kvav27, we did not have any bank involved. We actually had received a variation from W (credit note) that I had to sign and send back, the final statement was issued the same day too. so it was all done within a couple of days of PCI.
