Buying New Homes - Frequently Asked Questions

When buying a new home, there are always many important considerations. At New Homes Direct we make the process of buying new residential property as straightforward as possible. Below are answers to common questions we receive about buying a new home, buying off plan property and buy to let property investment.

Why should I buy a new residential property?

There are many advantages to buying a new home over buying an existing property. Chief among these is that you can be sure that your new home will be built to the very latest standards, whereas with an older property you may need to upgrade the wiring, etc. Additionally, you can decide how you want your kitchen, bathrooms and floorings to look without the time and expense of remodelling.

How do I buy a new home with New Homes Direct?

First you have to register with us. Registration is free and very simple. Once you have registered, you view all the deals and discounts we have available to private buyers. New Homes Direct is the first home buying website where everything can be done online, from arranging to view show homes to mortgage approval.

What sort of discounts can I expect?

When buying a new home from New Homes Direct, the discounts typically include having your deposit, stamp duty and legal fees paid, and receiving cash back of up to 15%.

Do you build the new residential property yourself?

No. New Homes Direct works in conjunction with leading house builders and UK property developers to provide a highly targeted residential property service. We also have specific deals with international developers, either directly or via our partner agencies.

What does buying off plan property entail?

Great discounts can be had by buying off plan property. Off plan buying opportunities arise when a developer or builder wishes to sell new residential property before building has been completed. Excellent savings can be made through buying off plan because the buyer is helping to fund the development.

What about Buy to Let property investment?

For information on buying residential property as a buy to let property investment, please see our Investor FAQ page. New Homes Direct has a property investors club for people looking to buy new homes as a buy to let property investment.
