We Signed the contract!!!

Today we had our contract presentation appointment. We received the contract just one day before, so didn't have much time to read through it fully. We sent to our solicitor immediately and he let us know the contract is ok to sign. But on the site plans we found some errors which are being fixed on the contract presentation day. We made a note for all the questions that we got before the contract appointment. The tender and the contract presenter was the same person. So it was quite easier to consult with her. After she finished her contract presentation we raised the below issues.
·         No indication where would be the hot water system – She draws the hotwater system next to meter area (behind the living room).
·         A window between alfresco and dining which we were not aware of, as all the display homes we went had stacker door between the alfresco and dining which makes it look more open. So we asked a quote for sliding door and stacker door. The quote for sliding door was around $590 and for stacker door $1850. After little bit negotiation we decided to have stacker door, as we wants to have the same door that we are getting on our family room. So the final price for stacker door is $1600.
·         We asked for a fixed window on the dining area instead of sliding window on our tender appointment but they didn’t change that. After notifying her, she removes the sliding window and includes a fixed window on the dining area.
·          We didn’t like the 3rd bedroom window height, so we asked her if we can increase the height and she gave us a quote for $215. After negotiation she gave us the final price $100 to increasing the height which we agreed to pay.

And we signed the contract :)
