          New builds are tulip quality.

          Very small too.

          Fking garages where a single car won't fit FFS!

            They're only very small if you buy a very small one.

                Don't get me started. Went to view a couple of new builds and they were just obscene!

                Most ridiculous things I've seen were:
                - house with 2 bathrooms, main one plus en-suite. The main bathroom had a bath tub but NO shower head.
                - same house, the living room had 2 radiators EXACTLY in the middle of the 2 main walls.
                - single garage where the owners could not fit their car (vw polo)

                Went to view an end of terrace built in the 1930's and it felt like a castle compared to the new builds. Big rooms, walls made of bricks rather than wood and plasterboard, big garden, reasonably big garage. Came with a problem though, which was the dealbreaker: the mid-terraced house had right of way through the garden. Don't want that in my property.

                  I loved my 1930s semi a few years back. Mind you the garage was built for a small 1930s car.

                      One would have thought that with house pricing going up and up that would result in higher quality, bigger builds.

                      Not in this country.
