Why buy a new build home?

Just like everyone has their own preference when it comes to fashion, the same can be said for property. Some people love period homes full of character features, whereas others want a new build home with a clean and fresh feel that they can put their stamp on.

For those of you who can’t decide which type is your dream home, Waterfords Land & New Homes are here to persuade you to consider a new build home in Surrey, Hampshire or Berkshire. We are of course a little bit biased because we are passionate about new build properties, it’s what our department are experts in! We will talk you through all the advantages of buying a new build property in this blog.

If you want to buy a new build home in the Camberley, Chobham, Fleet or Yateley area, then please get in touch with our friendly Land & New Homes team, who would be delighted to answer any questions and talk you through our latest stunning new build properties in the region.
 

Blank canvas!

A new build property will be untouched and completely fresh for you to come along and make it your home sweet home straight away. If you buy a new build property off plan before the build has started, there is the option to choose all the exact fixtures and fittings too.

Many new build homes for sale have already been built with the most up to date fixtures and fittings out there, meaning when you move in, you can enjoy life straight away and not need to worry about choices. You can still have lots of fun choosing the paint colours and new furniture.


Everything is new

It might be stating the obvious, but everything in a newly built property really is brand new. The bath, the shower, the boiler, the toilets, the oven and any other fixtures and fittings. Because they are new, they will all be under warranty, giving you peace of mind for at least the first few years... You won’t be stung with unexpected costs, like having to replace the boiler, just months after moving into a second-hand home.
 

Safe and secure

With a new build property, you get the added benefit of increased security. From the latest strong doors and windows to the most up to date electrical and fire safety measures, a new build home provides a safer and more secure environment than many older buildings.
 

Cost effective and more energy efficient

The difference between the running costs of an older property and a new build home can be substantial. Advancement in energy efficient technology is obvious when you compare a new build property to an older one. Everything from insulation to fitted appliances will be incredibly energy efficient, saving you money on bills in the long run and keeping your cosy in the winter months.
 

There is often no chain

Without a doubt, one of the most stressful parts of moving is being caught in a chain and everything is out of your control. With new build homes, you aren’t at the mercy of other buyers and your dream home is ready to move into straight away as you aren’t having to wait for the previous owner to move out. This reduces a lot of uncertainty often associated with moving.

You may have unavoidable delays with the build of a new home, but you can effectively move as quickly as the builder can finish the home. This is still much less complicated than a long chain!
