PCI & HANDOVER!!!!

So I had the PCI on the 2nd March after it got pushed back a bit which was really frustrating. It went very well with only a few cosmetics issues like paint to fix up. The side of the house on the boundary needs to be rendered as it was poorly bricked from the inside out. The motar has squeezed out the side and they didn't bother to wipe it off. Other than that minor things which could be fixed.

I paid a private building inspector to come and do the inspection for me as I would not have a clue of what to look for. He was fantastic!

HANDOVER TOMORROW!!! WOOHOO Finally after 2 years and 8 months! It has been a loooooooong journey!

I get the keys at 1pm so I will be cleaning the house ready for the furniture to be delivered on Saturday. The couch won't be in until next Thursday but the rest will. So much to do still including sealing the grout and tiles which was a suggestion by a few of our friends to help with cleaning down the line. Then of course there is the landscaping which needs to be done in the courtyard, backyard and front.

Anyhow.. now for some picture updates!

Loving my aggregate driveway upgrade

More pics to come at Handover!!

16 Week Update!

It has officially been 16 weeks and the builders are running a bit behind so they will now have to compensate me $330/week for every week they are delayed.

The painting and tapware has been done so the house is starting to all come together. The doors are in. Not much left to do! The shelving needs to be built for the walk ins/pantry. Downlights/lights and switches. Door stops, flooring, rendering outside and concrete.

Hoping to move in around the end of FEB! Now.. for the pictures!

Furniture Shopping!

Over the break we got all the furniture for the house!

We chose these chairs, but in a lighter grey because the couch is already dark grey.

Tiling & Painting

The end of year rush took over so I didn't get a chance to update. There was not much done to the house after the plastering as the builders were on break for 3 week. The tiling has been done and they started the painting a few days ago. This should also be finished by now but I have not had a chance to drop in.

Loving my Bevel white Tiles in the kitchen and so glad I changed it to white grout so it does not look so "cafe like"
