A friend of mine who's buying a house in another new development just heard back today that his developer won't include a condition in his contract to refund his deposit if his mortgage falls through. Just wondering if anyone here has asked for this condition and if there was any pushback? Thanks in advance.

By the way new Shackleton brochure is now online if you haven't been to the new sales office, it shows up to date internal layout. e.g. no store room door in the living room of type A house. Also there seem to be some minor tweaks to the main bathroom, and HP in the attic room. All fairly positive in my mind.

Emk_91 wrote: » Yes I think the changes are much better. The attic room in the type a houses looks bigger too. The only change I found a bit annoying was that the windows are smaller

Ive just heard some new developments include this in contracts. Also, I haven't seen anything about management fees so assuming they won't apply but again, some new developments do come with management fees..
