1st post!
To add to list or remove some intial steps, in my area
1. not really needed as the surveyor will usually do a contour and detail survey showing fences etc and there offsets to boundaries for concept design.
You can get it done but be prepared to pay extra $500. Get it pegged at completion when fencer needs it and then good chance they won’t be knocked.
Make sure builder has final survey report done for final inspection by council before handover.
[cap]hope that helps

I worked for a nationaly house building group and unfortunately the building flow changes from state to state. It’s amazing how differently things are done from area to area!
