Handover date is Nigh...

We received a call from our lovely SS with a handover date. Everything's been booked in for this Friday coming. Fingers crossed if all goes well we will be moving over the weekend :)

Our CLE also rang us to confirm the settlement date. She said she also had a present waiting for us at Mulgrave. I'm guessing it's a toaster or blender.

Now all we need to do is organise the removalists, fencing, concreter, landscaper, mailbox, etc., etc....
OMG it seems like we'll never get to rest... :)

PCI is over and out

We had our PCI yesterday. It went better than expected. Much better :) We were very impressed with not only the quality workmanship of the tradies, but also our wonderful Site Supervisor Kevin.

We found a few issues, all of which were minor ones. The thing that impressed us was Kevin. He was helping us pick out faults as well, some of which were barely noticeable. It's good to see Kevin prides his work and treats everyone's build as his own home.

He didn't give us a date for the final inspection as he needs to book in some tradies, but he did indicate it would be a couple of weeks.

We're getting very excited now and looking forward to moving in :)

PS. We took the camera with us with the intention of taking pics but totally forgot. Sorry all.

One Step Backward

Well the past week and a bit has been a drama for us. Our CLE had called us and advised that the PCI would need to be postponed due to things not being finished on time. Things like our front door not being fixed, wiring getting stolen during pre-plaster stage, tiling and tile grouting not done. Things just seemed to be mounting up. We thought at this rate we'd be lucky to move in before Christmas.

Well I'm glad to say we received another call from our CLE. We've been given a new PCI date :) I won't tell you guys though coz I don't want to jinx it again :) Next time we speak we should (fingers crossed) have completed the PCI and be one step closer to Handover.
