No new posts for a while - have things got better?

[FirstTimeBuyer2016]

Hello!

I see a lot of useful posts here but nothing recent (2016).
Have things gotten better?
Or is it just that anyone who recently bought hasn't had time to uncover any issues yet?

Additionally, did anyone have any problems getting Barratt to agree to a snagging inspection prior to their move in?

I'm in my discovery phase looking at new builds, and Barratt seem to offer great space and layout options, but I'm aware they have the most complaints against them in this forum, it seems!

Thanks in advance

Welcome to the forum. I don't know whether they have the most complaints, but the contractors that build these homes work for many different companies. The house-builders are just a brand.

Thanks for clarifying. I guess it must be like buying anything new. Sometimes there are batches of crap, sometimes others have no problems at all..

Most definitely not, I recently posted about my Barratt nightmare but the post has not even appeared on the forum yet.
