    Hi, Can I ask you if you're house is on Drive brow houses close to the main entrance (26 - 31) or higher numbers 40+ ?

    I'm just asking to have an idea about the completion date they gave to you.


    Thanks,

    I was lucky enough to talk to some very helpfull guys working for GEM today out at the Drive.

    The higher end houses 59 downwards not sure how far down (late 40's I think) are all finished inside kitchens and painting is all done so forth, all that they are waiting for is Irish Water and the ESB to be connected. I believe the road will be tramaced start of September. They aim to be ready on time for snagging at end of Sepetember 🤞

    Hi all,

    Has anyone else here bought a 3 bed, B8b style on the meadows? We noticed the square footage of the B8b style is bigger than the B8a (show house).

    Have you received any correspondence from regency regarding estimated completion date?

    This is a reply from Regency this week

    "We expect to invite you to snag your new home towards mid-October and this process usually takes between 10-14 days and then we will invite you back to de-snag before you sign off on your new home"

    Hi has anyone recently snagged there house in HWR with Regency ?

    I'm curious how the process works and how long they give you access for ie after the guy is finished snagging is there time for other trades people to come and measure for windows and floors etc


    Thanks

    We snagged on 20th August on the Green and de-snagged on 2nd September. Andrei Furs is the foreman and he was very accommodating. We used Snagmyhouse.ie and Michael spent around 2 hours going through everything with a fine tooth comb. Andrei left us alone in the house and came back when we rang him. Same for the de-snag. I don't think they allow tradesmen to come on site at the moment because of Covid, but we never asked. Once everything was signed off, Regency were on standby to get the go ahead from the bank/solicitors to give us our keys. All done and dusted by the 14th September. (small delays due to the valuer and the banks).

    I'd say it depends on your contract and your relationship with your landlord... In my case, my landlord is aware that I'm buying a house since when I got the Mortgage Approved and found the house I wanted to buy... So I'd advise you to take into consideration that after getting your keys, you will still need some time at least for put the flooring in place.


    In my case, I had my keys 2 days before paying my monthly rent, so I paid the rent, and gave him the notice that I would leave his house in 30 days, being that one, the last payment, and I'll take these 30 days to get flooring, bill and everything sorted, so I can move with no rush and in a very organised say.


    Hope it helps,

    Cheeers,

    Hi Everyone

    Long shot but does anyone that has a B8 style house (3bed) have the measurements for flooring? Also does anyone have any recommendations for blinds companies they used/planning to use?

    Thanks a mill
