## Resource

Over a hundred homebuyers north of Adelaide are furious after developer Wel.Co canceled contracts for houses in the Springwood estate — despite the council confirming the land was ready. Tahlia Bickerdike and others trusted the project, only to be left with nothing. The state government is stepping in forcefully, with the minister calling Wel.Co’s actions “scumbag” behavior and vowing they won’t get away with it. The developer claims road changes forced cancellation of stages eight and nine, but the council calls it a bad business move. Wel.Co refuses interviews, citing a confidentiality agreement — though the council says it only covers one financial matter, not this entire debacle. With the government determined to protect buyers, this messy situation may finally get a fair resolution. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
