Week 16 - New Home Presentation


We met our Site Supervisor very early this morning, at 7:30 am, for our New Home Presentation.  The driveway had been poured; the lawn and front landscaping was also completed.  I am just hoping the grass and plants have a fighting chance - there was FROST on the lawn this morning!

This was the first time I had been in the home since I met the guy to measure up for the blinds, yet I felt like I had seen it all before because I had stalked the build so much that I don't think I missed a beat.

We turned on the taps in the sinks, showers and tub.  We flushed the toilets and checked for leaks everywhere and found none.  We plugged the phone charger into every power point to make sure they were connected and working properly - they were.

We checked for all of the extra power points we requested, on top of what was included.  I had also requested an exhaust fan in the laundry room, the kind you have in the bathroom, to draw the moisture out of the air when the dryer is on.

After all of my efforts to find fault and possibly not sign off on the home until everything was to par, the only thing that wasn't right was an extra power point missing in the kitchen island.  The site supervisor made note of it and we signed off on the home.  All that is left now is the bank's valuation and as soon as the final payment clears, we'll get called in to pick up the keys at Homebuyers Centre's Melbourne head office, in the Docklands.  Not far now!
