Hi All
Whats the process on getting Development Approval for a site and then deciding to onsell the DA instead of proceeding with building?
Its been over 7 weeks and my builder still has not produced the working drawings that were promised to be delivered in 2 weeks and im down 8k. This delay is costing me money in holding costs and more importantly its about another 7-8k for demo costs since we wont make the Jan1st deadline when landfill rates increase by 40%.
We are not off to a good start and i can only imagine what other delays i will get during the building process. I also have a feeling that the building costings will explode when i get the contract due to the increase in land fill rates because im paying over 100k in site works to remove clay.
So basically what happens with the timing for DA and contract signing? If the costings increase then i want to avoid signing the building contract but i dont want them to stop (or not start) the DA process.
