Mention to your BW sales person that you've paid a deposit. We had paid a deposit with Coral. We were given a credit for the deposit amount.

It's taken 8 months, but we've nearly finished our front yard. Just need to plant the garden and get the fence installed. You don't realise how long everything takes and…

We got ours when we signed the contract at colours. Our bank did a val after getting the final signed contract

I think you need those items for the occupation certificate, but not the interim. We didn't have them for a few months

Our appliances were installed. We had requested them to not be, as we had flooring going in after handover. They had to take them out again, and come back a…

We were going to source our own appliances. The cooker we chose was the same as the one Beechwood supply and cost the same, so we had them do it…

Unfortunately our back deck has been put on hold. I was made redundant the week after we got the keys, which has really eaten into our savings. I'm working again…

We put in a sliding door.
I think the original plan had a narrow window either side of the bed

They turned out a lot more brown then I expected. Ours are pretty uniform in colour, I don't think I would be very happy with them if they weren't.
We're…

We used Brampton, I'm happy with them now but really wasn't when they fist laid them. The sample to what we received is totally different.

They're a little dark

I'll see what I can get for you night, not sure how great lighting will be. It hasn't been an issue for us, our front door opens up opposite it

It's not something I'd noticed on our plan until now. But I'm kinda glad they forgot to do ours, it would have been too much. Our moroka is too dark…

Now that I look our plans show it, but we didn't get it

We have the Saville with Moroka, our entry is brick

I think we paid an extra $50ish a room for them to do the wiring for fans after handover

Thanks
Our block was scraped 9/6 and we got keys 27/11.
We used a local guy from Mirrabooka, he was really well priced.

That last photo was a bit dark
We have monument windows as well, but I think dune would be fine

We have Brampton with monument roof & gutter and dune water tank, down pipes and back garage door
Sorry it's a bit messy.

Try Whitsundays Brampton, I think they are similar to pepper. We have Dune water tank, back garage door and down pipes if you want photos

Right or wrong I wanted the twist for privacy, but the only way to get a third garage was to untwist it. I love how much light we get through…

We moved our fridge over to that wall and swapped the sides of the linen and tub. So happy we did
Also at elec stage check the position of the…

I have a whole wall of this tile in our bathroom, love it. Everyone that comes to check out the house, goes and feels the wall

We also got the 26 degree for free. It's really noticeable if you have standard pitch around you.

We currently only have the interim occupancy certificate. We're with Lake Macquarie council. My understanding is we need to have grass, retaining, fences, driveway, clothesline and letterbox to get the…
