Compared to an older home, buying new can offer a number of advantages. We take a look at just some of the reasons why a new-build home could be the one for you.
- A new-build home is essentially a blank canvas, ready for you to make it your own and personalise to your own taste.
- Everything is brand-new, so you won’t have the added cost of renovating when you move in, like with some older homes. In fact, recent research found that buying an older property and refurbishing it to modern new-build standards could cost you over £70,000* extra in renovation costs!
- Depending on when you buy, you may be able to select from our options and upgrades products to put your own personal stamp on the place before you even move in. This can be anything from the kitchen cupboards to the bathroom tiles.
- Our homes are twice as airtight as building regulations requirements, with large windows throughout, to help you keep in the heat and waste less energy. New-builds are more energy-efficient and ultimately cheaper to run; saving buyers up to £3,100** per year on bills.
- When you move to one of our developments, you’ll become part of a ready-made community.
- Whether you’re a first-time buyer or looking for a bigger home for a growing family, we offer a range of schemes to help you move sooner than you think and as smoothly as possible. And, if you’re moving from an existing property, you may be able to use Part Exchange to make the sales process easier (and less stressful).
- Your new St. Modwen home will come with a 10-year warranty policy from NHBC – the first 2 years of which are always provided directly by St. Modwen Homes. Your St. Modwen Homes sales consultant will advise which policy your home will be covered by.
