If it was a house and land package I thought they would have told you a start date to begin with. We were told ours before we had signed or paid anything. Has your land titled an is your finance all approved? Those are the only things I would think might slow things down? Re: Porter Davis homes 3675Nov 11, 2011 6:04 am Zinner humble Well it is now 7 days since anything happened at my place. Hope PD and my SS realise that if they fall 4 days short of XMAS, its gonna be on like donkey kong. They havent done anything since the friday before cup day. Grr.. I've had 4 weeks waiting for bricks with almost nothing being able to be done on my build. Nothing done Melbourne cup week either. Lucky its still early in my build so the interest is not so high. Missing out by 4 days and having to pay another month of rent + almost full interest because of the chrissy break would be pretty hard to take. Hopefully they get it sorted out and wrap it up before the break which would seem to be in their best interest anyway. Its got worse now.. my current landlord wants to move into the house, we were issued with a notice to Vacate 8th Jan. Grr. Re: Porter Davis homes 3676Nov 11, 2011 6:20 am Hey humble, Are you on a lease? If the lease isn't up they can't do that. http://www.consumer.vic.gov.au/ca256902000fe154/lookup/cav_forms_residential_tenancy/$file/noticetovacatert.pdf We are renting too and our rental just went on the market. The joy of open for inspections. Lease ends in March, our build probably not ready until June/July. So we are in limbo for a while, if the house is sold to an owner occupier Re: Porter Davis homes 3677Nov 11, 2011 6:35 am No we are out of lease now, and month to month. Its a pain in the ***. Firstly I have to go to PD and workout what the true dates are now, and then back to the landlord and ask for a stretch. Quite pi$$ed off yesterday, if they hadnt stuffed around onsite for 2 weeks, xmas could have been a reality. Grr Porter Davis homes 3678Nov 11, 2011 6:38 am I may complain about living with the inlaws while I build from time to time but at least we can't be evicted, served notice or have open for inspections I hope it works out for the both of you! Now about this race... I believe I might be winning :p Along with my taps I have now had our site start, pipes laid and the beginnings of our form work done My SS thinks we should have the roof on by Christmas, weather permitting of course Building the Drysdale 30 Wallara Waters, Wallan My Blog : http://www.ourwallanhome.blogspot.com My thread: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=50975 Re: Porter Davis homes 3679Nov 11, 2011 6:45 am LOL cat....yes you are winning...Alpal's block has just been scraped so he/she is on your tail. We have our construction drawings appointment at 2pm today. Hopefully our permits are in so we can catch up to you (and overtake ) . PS - As my nephew says, "Its not a race". Re: Porter Davis homes 3680Nov 11, 2011 9:20 am Thanks Wateman and eli-kay. I'm building in Point Cook. Land was titled in June this year and finance was approved months ago. Prior to signing the contract, I was advised that construction would commence prior to the end of October at the latest (they said most likely it would start in September). I understand there has been a delay with an amendment to the title although my issue is that the whole process has taken so long up until now and it has been impossible trying to get hold of anyone for answers. If the contract and selection stage was not held up due to their incompetence, construction would have already commenced. Hopefully Ebony can help. Three options 1 Ask the liquidator 2 Find another PD customer and ask the source of their report 3 Pay for new report 3 12332 Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 74700 I would never build with Fowler homes. I built with them in 2021 and till date maintenance issues are pending.
