Hi there,
we currently building an IP and the site work as finalised on 25th October 2007. By law the builder has to start within 3 weeks or so ... They did ....
Fast forward to 25th April 2008 - We had a look 2 weeks agon and the house is there but, some stuff is broken, Carpet & tiles are missing ...etc. We can't get a tenant in for another 2 weeks or so ... we tought ! Today i had another look. They haven't done a thing within the last 2 weeks. This is incredible ...we live 1 hour drive from the IP so we can't "control" on a daily basis.
It's getting really anoying and even expensive without tenant...
I have heard you can sue your builder to get some interest back ...but I am not sure what the conditions for that are. Certainly 7 months were not in the contract..
Any ideas what we can do ?
Thanks
Thomas
