Cheers for recommendations! I actually got a free Google nest through Spotify but it got delivered to my parents address so I’m yet to get my hands on it (was in the process of moving house + lockdowns etc). So perhaps it’s worth persuing the Google one
**** you then! Don't listen to my advice!
On your point about new builds though, we're going to see fewer and fewer standard things within houses over the years. Eventually they'll just build you a shell (and charge you the same amount) and you'll have to do all the boarding of interior walls and floors, electrics, plumbing, doors, windows, insulation etc.
Why don’t you shove that Ring doorbell up your arse!
They definitely like giving you less and less whilst hiking up the prices over the past 10 years thanks to the Help to Buy boom. My parents bought a new build about 25 years ago, and it’s incredible how much less space you get. Double garages have become a relic.
Im expecting the creation new build developments to stagnate once they get rid of Help to Buy for second time buyers later this year (unless they just repackage it as something else which they probably will). The fact STB’s could even use HTB in the first place is one of the reasons why house prices have become so unaffordable for young people.
