day 1 of being an owner builder


So....we have decided to go owner builder after Wincrest. Crazy maybe BUT very very exciting!! So today was a great day - we met with our architect, Roland, and also with our project manager, Ron, on site. That was really productive and they both seemed to be on the same wave length. Roland, Chris and I then had a meeting with Council. Amazingly, Council has been fantastic. They have been great throughout the whole Wincrest debacle and have done everything to help us get money back. David, from Council, told us today that even though we would be redesigning the house, given all we have been through, once we submit the plans he would endeavour to get them approved within 3-4 weeks! I was thrilled with that timeframe, as Roland has told us that he thinks our plans will be finished within 2 weeks.

Roland will be sending us the first of our 3D plans in the next few days - we are very excited :)
