We got our keys
We are now the proud owners of our new property, and are so excited.
We will move in next week, as too much to do with Christmas and everything.
My hubby ended up tiling as there are just such a big shortage of tilers.
And he has done a great job.
I will send pics next week when i have more time.
So to all of you building or buying ready built , good luck its a great feeling, we have been here just 12 months.
And have a lovely Christmas and a great new year, hope you all get your visas, and sell your houses. Denise xx

Re: We got our keys
Great news. 
It must be a really big relief.
Do they give you much off if you do some of the finishing yourself?
As the prices have crept away from us I was thinking of seeing if I could do the finishing myself, fit the Kitchen, tiling, decorating, that sort of thing.

We ahve built the Archibald, but 5 beds instead of 4.
I will send you pics when i take it all finished.
Im a bit annoyed , we had handover yesterday, and they said last minute jobs would be done, but they have not done them and it will be after xmas.
But up to that they where great, so I dont want to slag them off really.
Where are you building. Denise

I'm sure you've told me this before but I can't find the post.
The prices on the Content web site how do they compare with the actual end cost?
Thanks
