So, hopefully settlement will be scheduled somewhere in the next 2 weeks. The last 4 letters we've had from the solicitor have been to advise of delays, so this was very welcome and turned the excite-o-meter up a notch! One of the advantages (and to some degree, a disadvantage) of being land delayed is the opportunity to scrutinise every option, selection and decision made and continually validate them. As painful every conversation my wife and I have had that started with "I've been thinking about...." or " I don't think I like the...", we're now 100% happy with the spec of our house, and our BC has been VERY accommodating of our many changes, although most of them have ended up with a lot more money in PD's coffers Friends of ours are building a Churchill just around the corner, so their buid has been a surrogate build for us while we wait! So... just need to complete settlement, get the council building permit and finalise the construction drawings and away we go... Bets on for a (concrete) slab this side of Christmas Btw, your house is looking fantastic and is coming along at an incredible rate of knots!!!

I think reading on here doesn't help either, now I want to add the trench as discussed above, but I'm too scared to email my BC again as I think she's probably sick of me! Three options 1 Ask the liquidator 2 Find another PD customer and ask the source of their report 3 Pay for new report 3 12320 Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 74688 I would never build with Fowler homes. I built with them in 2021 and till date maintenance issues are pending.
