We're in the process of drawing up loans for our build that should start in the next 2 months.
Our broker has mentioned that we are required to gain quotes for driveway/landscaping/curtains/fencing, to provide to the bank (B@nkW3st)
I feel bad calling up a trade & gaining a quote for a house that doesn't yet exist, for a service we'll probably never use.
We have an amount of cash set aside in another account for all of the above to be completed, and we are going to do the landscaping ourselves, fencing quote will not be accurate as we'll be splitting it with 3 other neighbours.
I believe it's all to do with the evaluation? We have a 30% deposit towards this build/land.
Is this normal? Has anyone else had to gather quotes?
