Hi Deb and Paul
Get an independent solicitor - not one the developer recommends. Ensure your Purchase Conttract includes:
penalties for late delivery
money held back against snagging
a cap on Cancellation Fees (your lawyer will understand)
Also, push for a guarantee of more than one year; I assume you saw samples of their work and feel assured about their financial viability?
mkae sure your lawyer sees the Title Deeds, Planning Permission and Building Permit
