Not so as Haley Tillotson found out when she bought a flat in Leeds as reported by Sam Barket in the <em>Mirror.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They reported: \u201cHayley Tillotson, 29, bought her \u2018dream flat\u2019 in Leeds through the&nbsp;Help to Buy Scheme&nbsp;aged 27. But six months after moving into the property she found it was clad with flammable material. Ms Tillotson could not afford&nbsp;the fire safety costs, and in 2020 she gave up the property. Hayley said: \u2018Michael Gove&#8217;s new announcement&nbsp;only applies to cladding &#8211; not the interim measures which bankrupted me.\u2019 She added residents have faced huge bills for other&nbsp;fire&nbsp;safety measures.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Government has introduced some financial help for leaseholders of flats in high rise flats who are left with hefty bills to remove unsafe cladding \u2013 identified following the horrific fire at Grenfell Tower in London in 2017 when 72 people died. However the plans have been criticised for have a number of loopholes including the height of a property is in a block. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <em>Daily Mirror<\/em> said: &#8220;The Housing Secretary axed \u00a350-a-month loans for people in \u201cmedium-rise\u201d blocks to pay for fixing cladding. Instead, people in buildings 11-18 metres high will not pay a penny for addressing cladding issues after Grenfell. But that\u2019s not strictly true. People are still having to pay for waking watches; non-cladding issues aren\u2019t covered by the scheme; and people who\u2019ve already doled out cash won\u2019t get it back.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Buying a property can be an expensive exercise which is why it is well worth doing a credit check on company if you are buying from a builder or a building firm or through any scheme run by a company. Last year hundreds of house builders went bust \u2013 owing customers (house buyers) and their suppliers millions of pounds \u2013 and in many cases builders went bust when they discovered the could be liable for compensation over flooding, lethal cladding or other major issues with the property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Checkaco was created for consumers so that they can quickly access very detailed information about a company.
