Wallara Waters/Wallan

i have no net access at home at the moment and very limited download on phone sorry
i will see what i can do... also yesterday they are marking out driveways and getting the footpath ready to be layed on your side of the street

Used the footpath up to our lot today, we have even got a driveway

I was up at the land sales office yesterday and she said she has not been given any updated info in regards to title dates so going by the letter we received a couple of months ago
we are still looking at end of Feb.

the kids yesterday were riding there scooters along the footpath and down Richmond st
they were excited as they are the first kids to do so

Hi Grauci
and Welcome to WW

it may be different for different people and circumstances
but this is what we did
we paid our 5% deposit on land, we had this saved anyway so no biggie
we then went and got pre approval from the bank for the land (we used a broker)
and they are aware of the fact that land is not titled.
once titled and then land settlement happens i think we have 14 days to pay for land, which is then where the bank comes in and then our land repayments will start (we have not drawn on the land loan as yet and we still have a couple of months valid on the bank offer/approval then its off to the bank to sort out the build
i do strongly recommend talking to as many people as possible like friends or family who may of built in recent times and to talk to a professional just to help get a clear understanding
as hubby knows more about this than me i get easily confused... which is why he knows whats what with the finance and he has left house design and colours to me

and yes this a great topic page, we lived about 100kms from wallan until recently and this was such a god send in helping us

Hi, we are new to this forum. We are buying on stage 7, can't wait for the land to title and settle. We are building with Carlisle Homes and are all set up waiting to go. Will be nice to talk to some future neighbours!

We are building on lot 725.

Hi Barthez
Welcome fellow stage 7 people
there is now a few of us almost neighbours, i am 750 on the cnr
hopefully not long now. i was at the block last night and they are still pushing dirt around
but they are also smoothing it out.

mmmm carlisle homes have nice designs are you guys able to post floor plans pics??
sorry i know i am being a bit nosey lol

Hi Shellbelle

We are building the Riverton. Don't have any floorplans online yet, although looking to start up a blog for friends/family to see. I had a nosey at yours, looks very good.

We went up last weekend to see the progress and saw that most of the paths/driveways were in and they had marked out where ours were to be. Will probably go up again in a couple of weeks to see how far on they are and if it is still on track to title in February.

The floorplan is almost the same as what we are having, we have just moved the alfresco door to the meals area and added some more internal doors. We are also having the Manuka facade.
