Anyone building at Eden Grange Riverstone?

Thanks DHAN and Riz, EBH have issued a credit for my WSC cost.
Saved me about $1000 which can be used on landscaping etc.
Thanks again

Great to see people are still buying in the estate!
- Don't pay for NBN installation, most stage 1 and 2's are getting it for free
- Confirm where the sewer pipe…

Have a look through the land prices at the Grange as well.
Lot 116 (not sure if its sold or not) is 450m2 for $350,000
We locked in 500m2 for $295,000 which…

Yeah I would expect EBH to do so, they submitted to council that the house (well mine anyway) would have instant gas hot water. If they promise that's what is…

Does anyone happen to have the site/plot map of the estate?
I remember our sales guy gave us one but its gone missing, I tried a but of searching but none…

I think so, I remember the HSI guy saying "You have 5 days to make any more changes etc' and then there would be a charge
$250 probably

And yeah, we are across the road from you at 13.

Once the land/estate is released, the council will release guidelines to your solicitor about the land/estate.
And then in there they mention the external fencing for corer houses (I think that's…

Yeah I think colourbond will be better, since our area is flood/fire-prone I don't think a wood fence would be a smart choice. Having to replace panels every few years…

Yeah I think she has, middle-aged couple I believe.

We are going with Loam. It was going to Chocolatto but we got scared that it would chip and look rubbish.
Has anyone been out to the land lately?

Yeah our Bank manager said the Grant is all fine and no time restrictions etc opposed to what EBH said.

We're also a first home buyer/builder, there are two forms that we filled in
One for 15K grant and the other is the Stamp Duty exemption.

We're are retaining wall-free at the moment but I would assume it would be part of the fixed cost

Was that an independent Test? or was that done with EBH? with the online access thing that EBH gives you our status has been sitting on that Soil Test for…

We tried to get them to extend the maintenance period but EBH pretty much just said 'no'
Let us know if they change it for you.
Remember there is a lot of…

If they are making you pay, I would try and contest because you didn't ask them to lodge it so early on in the process when there was…

Scoping out your neighbours eh? We're 13
Has anyone spoken to EB about fences and that stuff? is that another cost for us to pay?

Thanks Marsh
I assumed it would be released January anyway because of the Christmas break etc. but if its Feburary then I guess that's just the way it is.
