We found out yesterday that the previous ‘reserver’ who pulled out had already chosen the kitchen units – she chose Bromley oak units and a ‘Black Granite’ worktop. Which the girlfriend is not very happy about at all. We really don’t want black worktops as we will have to buy everything in chrome, which is more expensive, and also black is a bit depressing really. We wanted a lighter colour to make the kitchen look fresh.
We are calling in this evening to see the actual colours, but judging by the black granite I have seen browsing the net, I am not hopeful. If we don’t like it i’ll kick up a stink, but I doubt it will do any good, they have already ordered the units.
On another note, I spoke to the mortgage advisor and solicitior yesterday and got things moving with both of them. The solictior needs something called a proforma from Crest, but when I asked them to send it they said Head office would send it, but they didn’t give me much confidence that it would be done very quickly…. We only have 28 days to get all the paperwork sorted so I hope they pull thier finger out. FYI, 28 days is a Crest deadline.
