Yep, don't move in till you've done the snag. And the re-snag. And the re-re-snag. That's the stage I'm at! The builders said they'd be onsite once a week for maintenance after the block is finished, but you'll have a much better chance of them actually doing the work if you haven't given them all the cashJohnbyrne40 said:do u have to snag before u move in?
I bought the same, no 11 in block 7 The builders said to me last week that about 10 people had already moved in, and the whole block *had* to be finished in what is now one weeks time!kal_el said:Hi Guys,
This is a great site ! I just put a deposite down on a 1 bed in block 7 recently and i was wondering if anyone has any idea on how long it might take when people start moving in ?
Also can anyone explain to me the situation with kitchen fittings, i.e. washing machine, cooker etc. Do the apartments come with this already ?

Interesting point. Do you know what the other retail units will be used for by any chance?
Thanks

tazdustdevil said:My contracts for block 3 say that there is a plan for a doctors surgery and a creche on the ground floor. I was up there today with some friends for a wee look but its very hard to tell which new block is which with all the fencing etc. The Hotel looks really nice inside (nice big flatscreen tv's for sport and very friendly staff!) and the shrubs that have been planted are nice. Its also nice to see that people have had barbeque's etc. I am very unsure about the planning for off licence. In some ways it might be a good thing. However, I wouldnt like to see the green areas, small as they are, become a free for all, for drunk local muggers. I think security gates will be needed and we should as residents/ future residents lobby but I cant see it happening if a doctors surg and creche are right in the middle of the complex and not on Finglas rd / tolka valley road. FTB26, I take it you have seen the plans, which block is the offie planned for?
Also to those already moved in, how many people have moved in? and is your smart broadband working (dont want to start a 4 month moan about broadband like the East wall apts, just wondering!!!!)...
This is the first year of my life I have ever actively wished away!!! December is my estimated completion date (if completed by then even!!)...
Harry2006 said:was up around the development the other evening. did anyone notice the application for planning permission posted on the fences into the development looking to change one of the retail units from a FOODSTORE to an OFF LICENCE? do we really want or need this type of outlet when the TESCO is next door selling alcohol and also it may draw people into the development that we dont really want..... Just a thought - but maybe I am being a snob!
