Permits, Approvals, Resource Consents and Settlement

6 months went by waiting for the title and plans to be approved; we had a double challenge as it was a new title the approval takes at least 6 months. The building permit was complicated because it was a old house and needed resource consent as well as a building permit.
At last it all came together, the title, building permit, settlement of the sale and delivery of the house all on the same day!
It was all a little to close for our nerves and blood pressure, a bit risky, much later, we found out how close to disaster it could have been. As well as the timing I found that the contractor moving the house didn't have any insurance!!!
The delivery route - 37Km trip up and over a 500 meter summit.
