Hello,
My house has got pyrite in its foundations, meaning that they have to be excavated and relaid, at a cost of €40,000 or more.
I'm trying to find out how much of the price of the house in 2006 went in 'overheads' such as stamp duty, VAT, and the mandatory house insurance. I paid €375,000 for the new house back then. I'd like to know, as it would help the case in arguing that there should be some form of consumer protection when buying a house, in return for having to pay these overheads. At least as much as when buying a toaster.
If anyone can point me at a source of info for this, or has worked it out before, I'd be grateful for info.
Thanks
Ray
Thanks. It was a new build but the builder is bust, Homebond deny responsibility, we can't prove fill for a particular house came from a particular quarry. I am just trying to get information together to help with our case.
Normal consumer protection is what I am after, and given that there was none I would like to work out how much tax I had to pay. These taxes should imply governance of some sort was in place, similar to your rights as a consumer when buying a TV or a toaster.
So if there was some way of working out just how much of the purchase price was VAT, stamp duty, insurance etc. then we could use that fact to help with our case. I don't know that it will make a difference, but who knows, can't hurt!
