Further October Construction & Timing Update

Inspections

Firstly, a thank you to everyone as we now have completed the vast majority of the Pre-Settlement Inspections and Valuations process this week. Hutchies builders will do their very best to complete any issues raised by settlement of your apartment. A dedicated team are now promptly working through any matters raised to eliminate the need to access your apartment post completion.

Progress

External works have been impacted by recent rainfall which has delayed Council inspections and final courtyards and the entry. Hutchies are completing the final items of work in preparation for Belvedere’s Handover.

Level 3 Amenity

We do note that Level 3 amenity is complete but is occupied by the required site accommodation for the builder’s team. This is unfortunately unavoidable and is required to comply with the Builder obligations. We will provide update photos are these areas become available post demobilisation of the builder off site.

Title and Occupancy

We are currently awaiting completion of the Plan Sealing with Council and the Certificate of Completion with the Certifier. We anticipate Plan Sealing will occur next week as Council have completed their last inspections. Hutchies anticipate a Certificate of Completion from the Certifier within the next two weeks. Due to the complexity of numerous documents and parties involved we still rely upon external parties performing these processes in a timely manner.

Window Furnishings

Lovelight has commenced installation of Window Furnishings this week and will be working their way up the building as we approach settlement.

Building App Registration / Electricity and Gas / Key Collection / Move-in

In the future updates, we will advise you of the process for registering in the Belvedere Building App, applying for Embedded Electricity and Gas, how the key collection and move- in process will be undertaken.

October Construction & Timing Update

Firstly we would like to thank the everyone for their cooperation as we have had a terrific 2 weeks of purchaser inspection with over 80 apartments inspected and 50 plus valuations completed so far.

If you need a bank valuation for finance purposes and have not had one already please follow up with your lender and ask them to order the valuation as soon as possible.

The project is in the final stages of minor last items construction, detail cleaning and demobilisation off site. This work will be completed in the next few weeks in parallel with Title registration and the issue of a Certificate of Final Completion (Occupation Certificate). For any defects raised in Inspections Hutchisons will endeavour to close out those matters as best as possible before you settle.

The Plan has been lodged for Plan Sealing with Gold Coast Council in Sept– the final reinstatement of a street water connection (a Plan Sealing matter) in Peak Ave was delayed 2 weeks by the Council until late last week. The council will be doing a few final inspections in the next period as part of this process. As per our previous advice, we are subject to the orderly progress of all parties leading to Plan sealing. We anticipate that Plan Sealing should reasonably occur within the next 14 days and then it will be submitted for Title creation.

Final Council inspection for Plumbing has been completed this week. Application for final Occupancy Certificate has been made and all required certification will be completed next week.

That should put us with registration and full completion around the third week – fourth week of October subject to how the Council progresses Plan Sealing. Once the Occupation Certificate and title are available, and the Strata Manager completes the required Body Corporate information, our solicitor OMB will issue purchasers with the requisite settlement notice in accordance with the Contract.

Lobby and Level 3 Furniture and Equipment (by Developer post contract) are due to be installed 3^rd week in October.

Belvedere will be using an app called ConnecX. This project App development has been completed and we will provide access next week for you to register your details. The App and portal will be the hub for access to the Building Manager and Facilities. It will also provide the post settlement Booking system for your move – you will need to register to access this system for all moves / big deliveries.

For those who have placed an order for Window Furnishings with Lovelight – installation commences next week.

Please see some new photos below.

September Timing Update

As the builders are completing final touches to the apartments and getting ready to start inspections at Belvedere there have been a few small delys onsite.

For those purchasers requiring finance we anticipate bank valuations to commence week beginning 16th September.

Once your apartment is ready for valuation we will send you an email for you to pass onto your lender so they can order the valuation.

Purchaser Inspections are anticipated to begin week beginning 23rd September.

Once your particular apartment is ready for your inspection we will send you an email with a link to our online booking calendar.
