Do you pay stamp duty on a new build?
New builds follow the same stamp duty rules as any other property. That means most first-time buyers do not pay stamp duty and most people moving from another house do pay it. However, some new-build developers offer incentives to pay your stamp duty for you, which can mean significant savings.
Do you need a survey on a new build?
It’s a good idea to get a snagging survey done if you’re buying a new-build home, which is a type of survey especially for new builds. It will spot any workmanship issues, defects or repairs, and you can then ask the developer to fix them before you exchange or complete. Your long-term warranty will cover you for any structural issues.
When do you start paying council tax on a new build?
When you buy a new-build home, you usually get a ‘completion notice’ which sets out when the property officially becomes a dwelling for council tax purposes. You will need to pay council tax from this date, even if you move in later. Check your local council’s website as you may need to apply for your home to get a council tax banding.
What is a new build property?
A new-build property is a home that is newly constructed and has never been lived in before. Everything in the home, including fixtures, fittings and appliances, is brand new. The main differences with new builds is that they are more energy efficient, very safe and secure, and often have eco features or smart tech built in. The process of buying a new-build home is also different: you only need to submit an application and pay a small reservation fee, which can be much simpler than buying an existing home.
Are new builds a good investment?
New-build homes can be a good investment as they offer practical, eco-friendly living that saves you money in the long run. Warranties cover any structural issues and new builds are very energy efficient, meaning lower running costs. There is also financial support to help you save money when you buy a new-build home, including government schemes and developer incentives.
Do all new builds have estate management fees?
No, not all new builds have estate management fees, but it’s always worth checking this if you find a new-build home you like. Estate management fees cover the maintenance of communal areas in a new-build development, including roads, parks, gardens, pavements and play areas.
