The Sales Order

Blogger's prediction: 

• The Sale Order will be given on 2 Jan 2018
• The Completion Date* sometime before 2 April 2018 
• The Last Moving Out date: 6 months from Completion date so 2 Oct 2018

* Completion Date could be sooner as machinations are going on concurrently to the STB ( I presume they are not just sitting on their hands).

UPDATE : 2 Jan 2018
Sales Order has been issued by the STB. So we shall have to start house-hunting in earnest. I suspect those who could would have bought their replacement unit already, the more cautious might buy over the next few months and those who don't move with the herd will wait until Completion Date when it is 100% confirmed.

I, for one will wait, because things can still take an unexpected turn without the all clear on the Developer Front.

We await further instructions

D-Day

You didn't think I was really gone, did you? What's happening at the moment is too precious to ignore - the majority are having kittens over on the FB page, they are all in a tizzy. Their FB page and Whatsapp chats are a riot of uninformed comments. Sue the objectors for wasting time?  How about having a bit more humility and recognise the enormous privilege the Government has bestowed on the majority. For some, it is not enough to force sell other people's homes, they want to drag the last 3 remaining owners to the courts and sue them as well. Why don't they add in some lashes for good measure.

D-Day was not 21 Dec 2017 (date of the last mediation) - D-Day is set for 28 Dec 2017.

I doubt very much the objectors will stretch the full 21 days and then fail to make an objection at the High Court.

So, no Christmas 'Sale Order' present for the Majority.

They will just have to wait until New Year for that. In the meantime, they should just enjoy their end of year celebrations as usual and things will take care of themselves. 

If the Developer has been busy in the background getting all the relevant permissions then the Completion of Sale shouldn't be too far off from the Sale Order, if and when it arrives.  The CSC/MA has been very tardy in keeping owners informed of the progress, no one nows if TC has passed the LTA hurdle or the LUP quantum.  I am sure owners would appreciate an update on the Timeline.

There have been two funerals in the estate that I know of -  if the deceased were owners, how will this affect the completion date?
