All coming together so well. Your tiles for wall looks superb 😍 Thank you! We are very happy with the tiles, considering we chose standard tiles we were quite surprised at how nice they look  30 Apr 2018 50 Loyal Member 30 Apr 2018 50 Loyal Member 30 Apr 2018 50 Loyal Member Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - South Ripley 69Jun 18, 2019 9:31 pm catchganuWe have selected Noosa as well and paid the preliminary fees 1750$ and expecting pretender next week. Can you please help to understand what's the next steps. My major requirement was to move into new home before Christmas as my family is coming from Aboard for a break. It's a registered land, just need to transfer title to my name. Land contract signed and approved. Coral promised that they can build and hand over by 1st week of Dec, so we are rushing thru. Say once I receive pretender next Monday 24th June, How long will it take for Coral to produce contract ? I am sure few minor changes will be required after pretender. generally whats the turnaround from pretender to contract? Once contract is signed, do they need color, electrical and tiling appointment to complete before submitting to Council ? Or this will happen during wait time for BA? Please clarify. Do you reckon that build can complete before Christmas? Coral stated that their build is 12 weeks, so even they start on 1st of Sep they have 12+ weeks. What's your thoughts and experience, getting very nervous . Please clarify It’s hard to say because our process was different. It took Coral 6 weeks to have our contract written up after we paid the $1750. It took probably 3/4 to do all our appointments because it’s booked out in advance. Once our land registered it was 9 weeks before coral started on site (council approval, covenants approval, waiting on letter of commencement from bank, variations etc.). They also told us they could do it in 12 weeks but going off of most builds I follow in QLD its about 15/16 weeks to handover. I hope that helps! 06 May 2015 58 QLD Loyal Member Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - South Ripley 70Jun 18, 2019 10:56 pm amyelizabeth137 catchganuWe have selected Noosa as well and paid the preliminary fees 1750$ and expecting pretender next week.

Will Coral provide the promised completion date in the contract and if they go over, will they pay penalty? My presale consultant is very confident that there is 25 weeks between pre tender and Dec 13th, so believes it's do able. I don't have covenants so Coral stated it will 4 - 6 weeks for council and it's mostly 20 business days and then if I have the bank letter, they can start immediately. Not sure whether it's a usual sales pitch or experience assurance...overall I am nervous 29 Jul 2018 295 Sunshine Coast QLD Silver Member Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - South Ripley 71Jun 18, 2019 11:22 pm catchganu amyelizabeth137 catchganuWe have selected Noosa as well and paid the preliminary fees 1750$ and expecting pretender next week.

It will come down to how long your council approval will take I reckon. It's not impossible but xmas is cutting it close! Also once you have the letter of commencement they won't actually commence the next day. They give you a start date which can be anywhere from 2-4 weeks from that day. 30 Apr 2018 50 Loyal Member 08 Oct 2018 225 Bronze Member Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - South Ripley 77Jun 19, 2019 11:07 am Looking good, which manufacturer is it by? Also curious to know if you put vinyl flooring in the alcoves for dishwasher and fridge? Reason I ask is we are going to lay vinyl planks but understand they do scratch and I wondered if this might be an issue when installing the dishwasher or dragging the fridge in and out when cleaning behind it. 30 Apr 2018 50 Loyal Member Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - South Ripley 78Jun 19, 2019 11:19 am BebbsyLooking good, which manufacturer is it by?

They are from carpetcall and they did lay the planks under the dishwasher and fridge. I see your point, you could leave it out! 08 Oct 2018 225 Bronze Member Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - South Ripley 79Jun 19, 2019 11:23 am amyelizabeth137 BebbsyLooking good, which manufacturer is it by?

In our last house we had problems with our dishwasher leaking so had to pull it out several times before finally buying a new one. So a bit unsure whether to put vinyl planks under it or not. 06 May 2015 58 QLD Loyal Member Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - South Ripley 80Jun 19, 2019 6:44 pm amyelizabeth137 BebbsyLooking good, which manufacturer is it by?

I am bit confused on what's better ? I am going for timber look like. Any suggestions Thanks. We haven't had only one small issue since we moved in and that has been a wiggly door handle, but other than that, it has been great. We will let them know on… 3 961  Hi everyone, How awesome!
