To be honest with you, it took us almost a year and a half to get it all finalised. We went with commonwealth (despite mortgage brokers' advice) as we were already banking with them and the woman at the bank was great to deal with. They have a lot of requirements for you to fulfil first... you have to have your business running for minimum 2 yrs and then 100000 other requirements too. Didn't help us that my hubby was also studying full time and working here and there when he could. Best of luck! if you have a good mortgage broker, USE THEM....because the amount of running around you will have to do is not worth anything. Chatz - you're right, its turning into a henley thread! Sorry chatz, we've invaded your page. meanwhile, i know how exciting it is when you find out you have your permits! we received that phone call recently too. I have a ** suspicion our houses will start in the same week. it would probably make sense for henley to order very similar products at the same time too maybe?

Chatz, you have a communal Henley build thread, that very cool and its also cool how we are all keeping an eye on each other.. and we all know that things happen for a reason and that these stages pass, easier said.. but all will all be fine, just believe that. Haven't posted for a while.. been up in Sydney for work..not much doing on our block, what with all the rain and all the issues we had having the slab re-engineered ( because of soft spots ) anyway a variation of 5 grand later... Good news is the concreters were on our block till nearly 6:00 tonight ( 19/05) so as they could get the slab done tomorrow.. All going well i'll have some candid snaps to post tomorrow..
