Hii pejmason,
Very good to hear from you. There are a group of us who have formed and are talking. Are you on Facebook? If yes, could you email Cain on cain@blackwolfcigarclub.com He can add you to the private group, as he has admin rights. It would be good to speak more there.0 -
Hi all,
I've made some progress. Not yet a member of the Facebook group (do I need to be invited?) but have some good news to share. My email for facebook is pejmason@gmail.com0 -
Hi everyone,
I am also in the (paused) process of purchasing a flat at St Bernards Gate. From my recent talks with both my solicitor and Catalyst staff, the drainage problems are basically stuck in bureaucracy for the foreseeable future. Very glad I didn't put notice on my current flat!
Chris originally told me August-September, which is interesting given what some other members have said they were told.0 -
Update:
Over the past week I have spoken to senior execs at both West London Mental Health Trust, as well as in Catalyst.
The legal easement works over the sewage pipe that runs through the site were finally done last week. Deeds have been signed and this is now clear.
Catalyst told me today that they will begin releasing contracts for exchange from next Monday for block 2 (Ellis) and then a little later for block 2 (Connolly). Our solicitors should have now received an updated service charge schedule, which will also go to our lenders for those of us needing a mortgage.
Theoretically at least this should mean that move dates could happen in November.
I am happy to keep anyone posted on what progress I make.
Very best,
Peter0 -
Anybody had an update today on exchange??0

Hi all
I've just found this thread and would like to connect with you all as I am and have been in the same position as you since Feb this year.
Thanks

Hi all
Would be interested to know how you are all getting on? I am looking at shared ownership properties and recently came across St Bernard's Gate - I found this thread when I was doing some background searches (partly because I was pretty sure they weren't officially in Hanwell). If you have finally moved in I would love to know how you find the area and commuting? I currently rent in East Acton. Also how are the flats and any correspondence/support you have needed from Catalyst?0
