PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour.

There are so many mixed views on the above. Over a number of yers on MSE there are + and - views that appear to be from trolls & spammers, but also there are quite a number of + and - views on MSE and elsewhere from people who seem genuine, and have a posting history that supports this.
So I was wondering if anyone has used them in the last year or so and can advise their experience? I am buying a new freehold home from the builder, so presumably this is more straightforward than some situations, so I'm hoping I can use this route to save what appears to be £500 upwards. People have spoken of hidden fees, but their quote seems to be pretty transparent, it lists everything that is included but where you might have been charged separately if you went elsewhere, so maybe they have cleaned up their act on hidden charges?
Would welcome people's thoughts.

Bump just to check if anyone has any thoughts, as I really need to decide tomorrow
