If you’re currently on the hunt for a new home, you may have seen the phrase ‘new build’ pop up time and time again.

A new build is a property that has been built, converted or refurbished within the last two years, which has never been sold. Often a new build property has never been lived in, so this includes buying properties “off-plan.”

New build homes come in all shapes and sizes, from cozy flats to charming terraced houses and spacious detached homes. Just a heads-up: different lenders have different criteria for what counts as a new build, so it’s good to check with us for the best fit.

Some developers offer tempting incentives, but it’s wise to get advice before jumping in, especially if you’re thinking about a mortgage. We’re here to help you navigate that!
