Laying Idle

Hello again blog! It has been a while - just on three months actually!

Since last time there has been some movement in the right direction! We now have quotes from Town Planners (RiskSMART) and we are currently looking at these to see who can achieve what we want for the smallest fee!

The geo-engineer report came back and for that $800 we found out that YES we can build, apparently Metricon know what they are doing when they propose a dwelling be build on a slope - Go Figure!

Our block is being re-valued as a way to allow refinancing to occur and therefore allowing us to apply for a construction loan. My parents have visited and have done an amazing job of clearing out a heap of lantana - Thanks a heap Dad & Jo!! The place still looks amazing.

FROM METRICON - we have plans on a contour map to which we made a couple of little tweaks to. Our sales assistant was away this last week (getting married) so that has stalled us getting the Preliminary Contract signed, handing over $1000 and then moving to Contract. If the planets align, the valuer will be kind and give us what we want/deserve; the Town Planner gets things happening quickly and we can progress with the build!

What Metricon has done to get the Denver to fit on our site looks amazing, especially considering the extent of the cut and fill - the back verandah looks amazing! I just hope everything else runs smoothly too.
