I hope this is the right please to ask questions on negotiating with builders.
We have seen a lovely house (our dream home) up for £229,950. They are offering a part-ex deal but I wondered how much they would be prepared to discount.
I have looked on other forums and was told due to the current market to start with an offer of £175k working up to a maximum of £200k
Did anyone have success with negoating a great deal
Thoughts?
Thanks very much!

Re:Discounts and extras - 2008/03/13 18:41Yes of course, but in the current market good deals can be negotiated.
I am just interested as to what previous customers had managed (ie, 10% off the asking price, 20% etc etc)

Re:Discounts and extras - 2008/03/26 22:27We are also looking to purchase new build but not with a part exchange offer, no idea how to negotiate as never bought a new build before and no idea what percentage of the asking price to offer, can anyone help?

Re:Discounts and extras - 2008/03/26 23:49Hi Jackie,
They will generally not igve you a discount as this down values the whole estate - they will offer cashback, stamp duty paid and extras. Just remember that some of the extras are low quality - e.g. landscaping to rear would mean cheap turf. Don't be too keen.
