Settlement

Settlement took place on Tuesday September 29 as planned. We now officially own a very small part of this wide brown land. So now our focus naturally turns to the house build itself



According to the contract the Building Period is 150 working days excluding weekends, Public holidays and Christmas closure.. Of course, the building period  doesn’t start until site commencement. It’ll be interesting to see how long it will take Orbit homes to start the build. However, site commencement can’t happen until the building permit has been issued. Under the contract, the builder is not required to apply for the building permit until we provide them with “essential information” including satisfactory evidence of our title to the land and satisfactory evidence of our capacity to pay the contract price. As the build loan is a further advance on the land loan it couldn’t be processed until after settlement. We are now waiting on the bank to undertake this processing.
