Progress

Yesterday we closed on the house on Nattai Close. So we are the legal owners. All of the money eventually transferred as it should. The Foreign Investment Review Board approved our purchase (very quickly). ANZ Bank (eventually) loaned us the money. We had a last minute "discussion" with various parties about the details of the contract (confusingly worded to those of us new to Australia) but we resolved that.

So we had a bottle of Asti last night. The bloke at the bottleshop asked me why we didn't choose Moey. Took a while to figure out he meant Moet et Chandon!
