Latest Status? Roofed!

Hi friends
Status to date? Alhamdulillah our house is 95% roofed. another 5% will be roofed in a month's time, InsyaAllah, awaiitng next shipment.


I've got pictures here of the developments in July & August, and the architects rendition of the completed house.... the architect is chinese, so his rendition is chinese style with red roof tiles, ours are black.... will snap some shots to be updated before raya.... really need to push my arse to do this updates.... i owe this to friends, with the intention to offer tips to ensure hassle free construction..


Talking about hassles.... Alhamdulillah, we have not got a single complain so far about our contractor, he's been patient despite the delays in payments.... I guess there is always a problem of being the first; in our case we were the first HOS customer of this bank - i hope they will be able to relook at their processes, to ensure contractors are paid when due.



I'll give some experience on budgeting in my next blog... lets hope soon Gembo! Enjoy the pics!
