We think they got a better offer.. Anyhoo, We are now the proud owners of a 20 year old brick house with a lovely garden and in-ground concrete pool. We're in the process of paining and reno'ing it so here i am back again Re: How quickly things change.. 11Feb 01, 2008 10:47 am Yes, We were disappointed to begin with but i guess it was a blessing in disguise! The way the market is here atm we got a great deal on a good sized house. The layout is perfect for us and it needs updating which is what we're doing. Hopefully we'll make a nice profit like we did on our last place Re: How quickly things change.. 13Feb 01, 2008 11:00 am I don't know that the market here has anything to do with interest rates. I think it's more people are choosing to build here rather then buy established which is why there is an abundance of established houses sitting on the market stagnant. For a town which is on the smaller side, it has a heap of new estates popping up. To many perhaps.

Have you got your surfboard out - ready for the water comming down the Darling Good to hear you've found a place. Steve Re: How quickly things change.. 17Feb 01, 2008 5:50 pm Weeeeeeeeellllllll, The place we're living in now is called Dareton. My hubby is a detective here. Anyhoo, Dareton is on the NSW side of the border and our water supply comes from the Darling river at Wentworth NSW. Mildura gets it's water from the Murry which is down stream from where the Murry/Darling join. So, Everyone on the NSW will gets their water from the Darling and Mildura side misses out because it's down stream from the Darling. Here in Dareton were on stage 4 water restrictions which were just lifted to allow people to water from 6pm-6am every night. Mildura chucked up a stick about it and now were the same as them, only watering garden beds 2 nights a week for 2 hours. So, It's all very political atm Re: How quickly things change.. 19Feb 02, 2008 6:42 am Hang in there - there is a big flood in western qld heading your way - the darling is flowing and hasn;t done for many years.
I was up at tolarno station a while ago and the miniscule pools of water were in desperate need of a bit of water. It'll be there soon. Steve Re: How quickly things change.. 20Feb 02, 2008 7:24 am FionaL And yes, It is hot! A stark contrast from Newcastle. So Newcastle is where you were previously based? Cool, I'm a Newcastle girl born and bred myself ....... As for being hot ..... I guess if we get hot here we can always hit the beaches and cool down ...... not much of that option where you are now though Fiona Depends what you're current inclusions are, but we're not including wardrobes and will just use second hand ones until we can save later on to get them built. Also have a… 3 11547 Been in a similar position and we decided to let the builder go. Some of the PSA money goes to engineering so we at least got those documents and they actually refunded us… 2 6014 Hi, you've probably already resolved this, however, Commbank will probably pay the funds to you after you send evidence the work is done regardless the change in the quotes. 1 35191 |
