new houses - opinions canvassed

drooke · 2005-05-17 07:23:17

Hi All, I live in Reading and am weighing my options regarding moving home, or whether I should bother at all. My current view is that the market will correct gently and so that shouldn't necessarily put me off from buying...but I'm still mulling things over. Anyway, is there any value to be found in buying brand new homes…

sorry pammie, not good advert for new homes is it, did the builder not issue you with an estimated build date, they dont usally give a specified date until exchange and some like persimmons will pay you if the completion date goes over i believe.
Do they tell you what is causing the delay, any chance of incentive to ease the pain say turfed lawn, extra t.v./telephone points?

my bark is worse than my bite!!!!!!!!
