Mega slab poured!

So here is a piccy of the slab, it looks like a runway and im already imagining all the rooms and where our furniture goes. lol

Piers are in!

All the piers are in! The bad news is that we went over by 60metres.. inital allowance of 75 metres so we up for quite a bit of cash.. oh well, im pretty sure the house wont move an inch now!

Site scraped!

So finally some real action! Site has been scraped giving us an idea of where exactly the house will sit. its finally sinking in that we are building!!

Site pegged out

Got a texct on the 5th April to say that work has commenced! Of course being excited about the news used the saturday to drive down from sydney. Alas pegs were installed. Also got the land slashed as the grass was getting a bit out of hand. Site supervisor will be in contact 11/04/2012 so hopefully will find out what is happening when!

Just been put on the Construction List

Some great news today where our bank has finally sent the Letter of Commencement to MJH. MJH has confirmed we have just been placed on the construction list so pegging will occur within 20 days. Very excited!!!!

Oh i forgot the electricals

We spent 9k on electrical appontment which only includes under cupboard kitchen downlights (ie no other downlights at all!) Things like alarm, extra power points, data, tv points, telstra lead in (lots of metres as we are on acres) have added up quickly.. Also got wall mounts for tvs in 2 rooms (home theatre and great room). Hopefully last added expense for a while ...

Valuation has come back

So the bank has finally organised the valuation and our land is worth 15K more than the last time they valued it in december of last year! Nice! Now ive gotta wait for the bank to pull their finger out and draw up all the contracts etc. They say it will take at least a week. Im so dissapointed with CBA..
