Nikki - thats a bit exciting. Do you think you will build in Melton?
Tracey - you've never too old. I am seriously thinking of changing careers after bub number 2 (no, no news to share) and studying teaching.
Cindy - yay I am glad you are in, its terrible about the walls though. Were they like that when you did your first inspection, or were they covered so that you could not see them.

My GF is a property laywer and she said stuff like that the onus is on the buyer to prove that it was not in that condition when they inspected the house and agreed to buy it (i.e. signed the contract) so its very difficult - how many of us take a camera to take snaps of the house, with dates on them, when we go to an open?

But if you can prove it, then they should have to pay for it I would think.
