We had PCI today and met our SS and Kevin from New Home Inspections onsite at the house.
We both went through the whole house marking every bit of repair work and touch up work that needed doing.
To the untrained eye, the house looks absolutely wonderful, and apart from a bit of paint touch-ups, door adjustments, little bit of plastering patch-up we couldn't see too much wrong.
Kevin did find some things that need fixing including the tiles on the bathroom floor that were quite badly scratched, that we wouldn't have noticed as the floor was still a little dirty. It was decided that they will re-tile the whole floor as it wasnt worth just replacing odd tiles, so in that one instance we have saved the cost of the inspection, as it would have cost us a lot more to do it ourselves if we had noticed all the scratches after handover!!
There was also scratches on the middle pane of glass on the front window which again we would not have noticed, so that will also be replaced.
Handover is going to be on Friday 16th December with us moving in on Tuesday 20th December, yes, just before Xmas, but that's ok. It will be such a relief to finally be at our new home.
Now we can finish up all the packing at our current house and can relax until the 16th!!!

Hey Janine I know you've got a lot going on but aren't you moving December?
Good pickup from Kevin; worth his weight in gold. Imagine having discussion on scratched tiles with the SS without Kevin's backup and expertise?
All fixable for your DECEMBER Handover. Not long now.
Sorry JK, but the 16th of Jan 2012 is a Monday... and is just AFTER Christmas... Something else happening in Jan perhaps?
lol
Wonderful news though, may the handover go through really smoothly (before Christmas)
Oh dear, me thinks its all getting a bit much. Good pick up people, I have now amended the post to read December not January.
Another senior moment :(
That's wonderful news J. What about the toilet window??
Here's to your first avenue Christmas (just by a bees dick)
