......Settlement Done!!

I spoke to the Broker and he informed us that settlement was due to take place on Wednesday 21st April at 12.00 midday!!  
YAY..happy dance...
so as from 12.01pm we will have a mortgage again...NOT YAY!!  
but after ALL the delays I am starting to get excited again...
and suprisingly Settlement went thru without a hitch and the cheque arrived on the very next day to pay for the power connection....definately NOT YAY!!  
but we need power!!!
The Builder advised that they are still on track to start Friday 23rd....
so fingers crossed all will be well....

enjoy the journey

.....We have movement!!....

Today is a bit exciting as we have had some movement.....
We have a builders sign on the fence!!
I know small things excite me!!!

Hubby had an appointment with the builder on the block this morning and we were advised that we needed a "3rd" site cut done...
which was quickly organised and completed this afternoon....
so after work I went for a trip out to the block to see the new site cut which takes up half the block now! 
and the sign !!!...
I didnt take photos but I will go back tomorrow night and take some!

and the other exciting thing is that the bank has finally got their butt into gear and our mortgage papers arrived in the mail last Friday so they are all signed sealed and delivered back to the Broker.
The builder rang  and said that they may start next week!! 
OMG...to be honest I really still cant believe that this is all happening..
it seems to have taken so long to get thru all the red tape & paperwork...
I am still holding my breath but I am starting to feel REALLY nervous...

Hopefully more updates and pictures shortly!!

Enjoy the journey

.....Finally!! Building Permit Approved!!,,,,,

Yes the title says it all!!....
I have had a phone call from the Builder to advise that the Septic Tank permit was approved last week..
and the Building Permit was approved yesterday!! Yeah...
I got a copy of it in the mail today so I KNOW that its TRUE!!

We are "pencilled" in with Powercor work to start installing the power in early May..about 3 weeks away so hopefully the Bank get their act together and we have money by then...

The builders are ready to go...
so maybe we should have movement soon!!  
Fingers crossed!!!

Will update again when we have more news.

Enjoy the Journey
