Was given an offer on a new build property that I accepted and paid the deposit for. It only had 2 weeks to go until I could move in, in the first week on April, then the lockdown meant that it was put on hold. Then work recommenced on 15 June and I was told it would be ready at the beginning of July. Then I was told there were delays and it would now be the middle of July. As it had been so long that I have been waiting and been in limbo, I asked Shirene Solak, who had been communicating with me, if there were any other properties Touchstone had for me to consider, as I really wanted to move into a property and have had so many delays. She said no. Then come the middle of July, I get another email saying the new move in date is on 18 August! Somehow 2 weeks of work originally turned into 8.5 weeks. In the 2 weeks since I asked that question, multiple properties have been advertised as available elsewhere by Touchstone, that I could have been told about, but was not. This company is making my life a living hell, being treated like dirt, when I should have moved into this property at the start of July already and have been very unhelpful. Even when I asked if a floor plan was available, I was told no and there were no interior photos/architectural pictures to look at at any time either. I was told when I get the keys that I could take measurements! They are having this place built and they expect me to believe that they don't even have any plans of the property? They then state at the end of the most recent email that further delays could still happen. A terrible experience so far.
