Hi... We're looking at buying a new house, for which they are just at the "mud and foundations" stage by the looks of it. (It's being built by Persimmon.)
Now, when we asked the saleswoman if we could rearrange things like the kitchen cupboards from their normal layout (in the showhome for example), she said no, because it would violate the planning permission. "We have to build what we said we would build" she explained.
This sounds bonkers to me. I'm inclined to think they just can't be bothered to accomodate buyers who want to tinker with the standard setup.
Anybody know if her claim has any basis in fact?
thanks, Spud
