Our journey building our new casaview home

Trouble has started

We have encountered a few issues this past week and we are not happy.

We have just found out that the water on our land is a trickle and the water board need to install a booster pump to rectify the problem. Until this is done council will not register the land. We cannot exchange or settle until the land is registered. Landcom say they were told 8 weeks ago that it would be rectified in 4 weeks! Now they are saying that it might not happen before Xmas and not to be surprised by this. What are they joking! No they are not! So we may have to rent until this time next year not as planned until March/April next year.  We thought they would be breaking ground for the slab in October and now find out more like January. So frustrating. Then this morning our solicitor said that these things can go on for 12-18 months, add 9 months building to that and that is 2 and a quarter years! 27 months!OH F#$^&%$%&&^$%&*& many swear words here. I am freaked out!

I feel as though our life is on hold. We can't plan anything! Not having a timeline is frustrating. Anyway if we don't get into the house until, let me do the maths...December 2012 or January 2013 then we can't move forward. We are stuck. OMG Chloe will be four and she isn't even two for six months. Oh man. I am freaked.

Then to top it off I found out by chance they are planning on building the exact same house as ours next door to us. Michael thinks it will be fine with all the different details but who knows if there will even be a house now. I feel very low.
