Why Buy New
1. Lower energy costs
New-build properties are designed to be energy efficient, with modern insulation, windows, heating systems and appliances. This can help reduce energy consumption and monthly utility bills compared with many older properties.
2. Minimal maintenance and renovation costs
Because everything in a new-build property is new, there is usually less need for immediate repairs, renovations or replacements. This means buyers can move in without having to spend significant amounts of money upgrading kitchens, bathrooms, windows, heating systems or other parts of the property.
3. Warranty and protection against defects
New-build properties typically come with a warranty that provides protection against certain construction defects and structural issues. This gives buyers additional reassurance that if significant problems arise, they may have access to support or remedial work during the warranty period.
4. Modern layout/specification
New-build homes are designed to meet modern lifestyles, often offering practical layouts, contemporary kitchens and bathrooms, better storage, modern technology and improved energy efficiency. Buyers may also have the opportunity to choose certain finishes and upgrades depending on the stage of construction.
5. Greater certainty over the first few years of ownership
Buying a new-build can provide greater financial certainty because the property is unlikely to require major repairs or refurbishment immediately after purchase. This allows homeowners to budget more easily and enjoy their new home without the unexpected costs that can sometimes come with an older property.
Purchaser Compliance and Administration Fee
To comply with the Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017, Michael Graham is legally mandated to conduct compulsory Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Customer Due Diligence (CDD) checks on all property buyers.
While we do not charge a commission fee to the property vendor, a mandatory compliance and administration fee of £54.00 (inclusive of VAT) per person is payable by the purchaser(s). This non-refundable fee covers the cost of third-party electronic identity verification, source of funds auditing, and the associated regulatory administration.
This fee becomes payable upon an offer being accepted in principle and must be fully cleared before a Memorandum of Sale can be issued or solicitors instructed. The payment of this fee does not guarantee the completion of the transaction, and Michael Graham reserves the right to request further verification documentation to satisfy its statutory obligations.
