Final Inspection of our Pivotal investment home

Today marked the final inspection of our Pivotal investment home. I  was happy that all the defects had been adequately fixed. The house was looking good. But unfortunately the turf that was laid a few days ago is dying and looks very brown.

 I rang our new property manager, and she suggested to call their Lawn Maintenance Man, Terry and he agreed to water the lawns for an hour on Saturday for $40.

Practical Completion of Pivotal home

Well Today was Practical completion date! At 1.30pm we had a meeting with Pivotal homes to inspect the property, Mostly the house was complete, but with the rain, they had been unable to lay the turf down, and they will still laying the turf today. We also found several small faults which Pivotal homes will fix over the next couple of days

I’ve just checked the latest construction update and the only thing left to be done on your property before we claim “enclosed stage” is the rest of the brickwork. We should be claiming enclosed stage early next week.

From enclosed stage, completion is about 6 weeks away (weather permitting). It’s important that we have good weather during the period that we are doing your fencing, landscaping and putting the finishing touches on your property because as you can imagine, it’s very difficult to lay turf and put plants in the ground if it’s pouring rain! We’ve had a good run of luck though, and I’m optimistic that it’s 6-7 weeks from completion as of today.

We will complete fixing stage in approximately 3 weeks from now, and that’s when we’ll book in a “practical completion inspection date”. You’ll be given at least 2 weeks notice before this inspection, and you’ll be mailed a letter about this explaining everything that will happen.

Everything is moving along nicely at the moment though – Let me know if you’d like any further information.

THE ROOF IS ON!

I went down to our Pivota Investment home today and found that we have a roof on our investment home.

 This is the Front door of the house.

This is the view of the neighbours property. I am quite pleased with the progress of our property. It is the first time I have been out there and actually seen someone working on the house. It is great to see it coming together.
