When it comes to a new build property, do you know any couple that can agree on the Interior Design options without debating?
If made wrongly this can be both disappointing and costly.
As a former Client Options Manager for a luxury housing developer, I was in charge of selecting the choices from the suppliers for the flooring, kitchens, tiles etc that we would offer to our new home buyers.
This was such a fun part of the job but you also had to ensure the choice available would suit a number of tastes.
So for us it's simple, but for new home buyers it can sometimes seem overwhelming!
When a couple are making the purchase of a lifetime to choose the final finishes for their forever home, they can sometimes feel that there is a lot of pressure to choose the right selections.
The other thing is - will they agree?
As well as the basic ranges being available, there are also the dreaded “upgrades” so when you get the final bill you almost want to bury your head in the sand.
As their forever home they don't want to make the wrong choice.
So last week I chaperoned my clients to help them do just that!
When we arrived at the selection centre, they couldn't agree
But when asked the right questions from someone who knows about design, it opened their views up to welcome new choices and build their confidence during the process.
They finally came to an agreement.
They walked away with some of their original choices but changed quite a few of them based on the questions I asked to dig a little deeper and truly unveil what eachother was thinking.
If you are in the process of buying a new build and you require a chaperone design service then please get in touch!
