Its been a Roller Coaster ride but we're nearly there!

Whoa... It has been pretty busy one for the past few months since my last update in October. I would never have imagined that building a new home was the worst and best experience you'll ever have. Mixed Emotions to everything. Well.. after waiting and waiting..... We are closer to grab the keys and enjoy our first new home!

A couple of frustrations along the way.. First, Di-lorenzo... i wouldnt forget you as you stuffed up all our floor areas! you meant to install the tiles we've chosen and they've decided to put a different tiles! (Someone accidentally swapped our paperwork with somebody else). Everything was stopped because of the tiles.. Painting, plumbing, electrical.. the lot. Ive read some blogs as well about Di-lorenzo mixing paperworks. Hmmm.. why why this is happening.

- No Apology from the Company. The solution from Di-Lorenzo was...( We can easily remove everything in two days. My wife has decided to keep the tiles though and we just need to change the wall tiles completely to compliment with the floor tiles. I will then discuss this matter with Metricon.

So much things happening but i wouldnt want to get stressed out.. it supposed to be an exiciting journey.... well.. its time to put some photos up...

Front of the House...love the Garage.. dont worry about the rubbish.. this will be picked up soon.
