Homebuyers who are faced with shoddy building work in
their new homes will be protected by a new, independent Ombudsman, Housing
Secretary Robert Jenrick has confirmed. According to reports, the New Homes
Ombudsman will step in to help homebuyers with a range of issues – and will
have statutory powers to award compensation, ban rogue developers from
building, and order developers to fix poor building work. Where people are in
dispute with developers, the new Ombudsman will work to resolve any issues –
ending the injustice of people facing potentially long waits and costly court
cases. Read more on 24housing.
