While travelling around Preston doing house and office removals, we have noticed a few new developments in the area. Are you thinking of snapping up a new build in Preston? First of all, brilliant choice! Secondly, Preston is a wonderful place and those homes are looking really impressive. At Flexi Removals, we have shifted lots of customers into these places and we have a few bits of advice to keep you right.

Preston’s New Developments

Preston’s really on the up. These new estates are popping up all over, and they are not bad at all! They are looking very modern (think toasty warm homes with all the fancy bits built in, such as integrated kitchens, smart tech, the lot). You have a proper community vibe in some areas. They are building parks and play areas, and they are usually close to shops, schools and the bus routes, so very convenient.

The Buying Minefield

Moving into a new build can be a bit of minefield. Here are some Flexi Removal tips to help you out:

1. Do your homework

Have a good look around a few different developments, compare the layouts and what you are getting for your cash.

Check out the builder’s reputation, see if they are known for doing a decent job.

Think about the future, what is planned for the area, are there any new shops or transport links coming?

2. Timing is said to be everything.

New builds can take ages to finish, so do not hold your breath.

Factor in all the legal bits and get your mortgage sorted.

3. Give it a proper once over.

Do not just take their word for it, have a good look around before you sign anything.

Might be worth getting a surveyor or ‘snagger’ in, just to be on the safe side.

4. Plan Your Move

Time your move right, so it lines up with when you get the keys.

Book with Flexi Removals well in advance, especially if it is a busy time. We’re very adaptable and can work with short notice if needed.

Think about access to the new place. Some building sites can be a bit of a tight squeeze for the van!
