Browse Forums Building A New House Re: stage 19 - Aston - Craigieburn 49May 17, 2017 9:35 pm the disadvantage is that many upgrades that are not considered "essential" are excluded from the valuation, especially as as you describe here in Aston. The area is still unknown for true value plus the bank naturally will only accept as much risk as they can realistically recover in the case of default. We had to fund $70k on our 25sq build (land deposit, construction deposit and excluded upgrades) and that was even after accepting the LMI premium. Re: stage 19 - Aston - Craigieburn 50May 17, 2017 9:48 pm Hopefully you get better news this time. Worst case scenario you will have to pay LMI on the shortfall for the construction. (as per my scenario above) OR If you have an existing property with some equity, you could also access this through a top up on the existing loan and take the cash to the new property you building just to avoid the LMI. Good luck Building the Madison 40 | By Porter Davis Re: stage 19 - Aston - Craigieburn 51May 18, 2017 12:20 pm Gio Hopefully you get better news this time.

Our build is reached completion of frame stage now in process of conducting inspections from a independent building inspector. Hopefully will be in before Christmas. Not unless you have managed to put it as a special condition into the contract somehow. 1 4037 The fastest thing a builder will do is bank your cheque, those systems work perfectly with lightning speed, everything else is slow burn.
