Today was our second visit to the show apartment. I still loved it as much as I did on our first visit. Possibly even more. We spent an age looking around, in cupboards, measuring rooms and furniture. The ladies form Taylor Wimpey left us to it, which was great. It felt a lot more relaxed and gave us the opportunity to really take things in.
I hadn't changed my mind about the apartment, and started the meeting by bombarding the TW ladies with the questions I had compiled from the day before. She must have thought I was crazy, but I needed to know the answers. To be fair, she answered them all and it did make me feel better. There was not much left for J and I to discuss after this point. He knew that I wanted to proceed with the reservation, and I knew he felt the same, and so we put down our £500 deposit.
But it is not as simple as just reserving the plot. Due to the fact that we are going through the 'Help to Buy' scheme, we have to apply to be accepted. Another selection of loopholes to jump through! TW gave us a rather fab folder to help us schedule and organise, and assured us that we would get some help with the 'Help to Buy' application from someone at Xact Mortgages. We just need to wait for that call so we can get the next ball rolling.
