Nov - Dec Update: Signed our lives away & Landscaping Plans

Final Metricon Contract was signed in the second week of November. Therefore we also received final loan approval from Westpac a couple of weeks from contract signing.

Mortgage documents were signed in the second week of December just in time in order to make the settlement date (20th Dec) which has also been booked in!!

We also have had to come up with a Landscaping plan to submit alongside with our Metricon building plans in order to receive developer approval to build in the Berwick Waters Estate. As part of the land estate guidelines the front landscaping is to be completed within 6 months of moving in our home.
