Driving home from work today, I saw a ute parked on the road up near our top gate. It was the surveyor coming to plot our land, hopefully to make sure it's possible to build here.
In our contract there is an allowance for 500mm over the building site included in the cost. If there is any more angle to the block then we need to pay for it (cut and fill costs). Apparently anything up to a metre isn't too bad - PROBLEM - our fall is at least 5 metres from front to back! Due to the size of the cut and fill, we now need to have a geo-engineer's report to ensure we can still build.
We're
still waiting on the Real Estate Agent to get back to us regarding the sale of one of our investment properties (will post a link once it is listed). I am sure I'll have a heap to say about the Selling process - real estate agents are not my favourite people to deal with!
Hi We've just signed up to build the Denver as well here in Melbourne! Looks like we have chosen the same upgrade options of spa to ensuite and grande alfresco :) will enjoy reading your progress over the next coming months. We are still in the very early stages, need to apply for a planning permit etc
