‘Don’t get in a fix – buy new’ says Jelson

When buying a second hand home it can be easy to forget about the value of fixtures and fittings – until you are unexpectedly faced with paying for them all. According to a survey by Moveme.com, one in three sellers take things with them when they move that they were supposed to leave behind.

Anything from light fittings to door furniture and even radiators have been known to be absent when the keys are handed over. And in today’s property market, the risk of buyers finding that the fixtures and fittings they thought were included are not there when they move in is even higher, as some sellers try to compensate for lower selling prices.

But when you buy a new Jelson home, you can rest assured that there will be no nasty surprises on moving day. Walls will be freshly plastered and painted with no screw holes or marks where fittings and fixtures once were. Your new home will have fitted carpets throughout and a lawned garden as well as a chic bathroom suite and a brand new bespoke kitchen with a selection of appliances.

In short, you’ll have a perfect blank canvas on which to stamp your own identity without having to erase someone else’s - or worry about re-fitting what you thought were the basics!

And the benefits of a new Jelson home don’t end here. Features such as Jelson-made double glazed PVCu windows and the latest heating and insulation will make your home up to four times move energy efficient than a traditional second hand property, helping to keep your energy bills down.
