This is one I wish I HAD missed. We bought one of these 'homes' from Galliford Try t/a Linden Homes and seriously regret doing so. They sold us our 3 bed house on the basis that it was LEASEHOLD. When we asked why we were told the College owned the land and didn't want to sell it. The house was advertised with 2 parking spaces, we got one. When asked why we were told 'the college won't allow us to give you 2 spaces'. This all started back in April 2016. We completed September 2016. In January 2017 I found out Linden Homes had owned the land since May 2015! They had lied and forgot to mention escalating ground rent increases too. So wrong #leaseholdscandal We own nothing apart from time in a house that we don't own and can't live comfortably in. Planning regs say we should have 2 allocated spaces - Linden are seemingly breaching regulations there. We probably won't be able to afford to live in our 'rented' first home in the future.
