We have been approved by council...

We were told unofficially by Wisdom last week, but today it is official - we have council approval!!!! It took 7 weeks in total which isn't too bad although it felt like a lifetime.  Now to complete the boring paperwork stuff before the excitement can really begin.

Our block is about 5 minutes from where we live now so I try and drive past everyday to see the progress of all the builds in the development - not to mention the new sporting fields.  There has been heaps of progress in our street.  This week our neighbours on 1 side (single storey) have had their roof tiles laid while on the other side (double storey) the frames have all gone up. The block behind (double storey) also had their slab laid this week so it is all happening.  I can't wait until our house slots right in the middle.

  1. Congrats on the approval!
    I can only recommend you to have patience again with the Estimation.
    But from here everything improves :)

  2. Thanks Raquel! You are right I really can't believe we are so close but yet so far. We got the approval and thought it was all systems go but then came the very confusing 'next step' email which said 2 weeks for this, 7-10 working days for that etc etc. It seems we are still weeks/months away....patience is the name of the game.
    Congrats on your progress - hopefully you will be slabbed this week. That is exciting! The only thing that keeps me going at the moment is watching everyone else's progress :)
