New Homes For Sale I Special Offers

Developers offer a wide range of special offers and incentive schemes to give buyers a helping hand when buying their new build home.

These special offers are development and plot specific schemes. When looking to participate in any of these schemes the first step will be to contact or visit the development to see what the developer is able to offer you.

Some of these incentive schemes may be exclusively available to first time buyers, but there are some schemes that are open to all new home buyers.

Shared Ownership

Help with Deposit

The scheme in which a developer will help with the largest portion of the deposit is as part of a Shared Equity scheme where the developer will help those who are unable to save a sufficient deposit to buy their new home. Developers may offer up to 30% of the value of the property as an interest free loan to be repaid 5 or 10 years after the property has been purchased. This is a way of sharing the amount of equity that is held within the property at the time of repayment. The loan will also have to be repaid if the initial purchaser of the property decides to move prior to the end of the time when repayment is due.

Other ways that developers may help with the required deposit on a property are:

  • Pay 5% of the deposit
  • Match your current deposit - although this offer is generally restricted to around 10% of the value of the property
  • Give incentives for family to help with your deposit:
  • If you are unable to save a deposit but a family member is able to help you out some developers will offer to pay up to 5% interest to the family member on the amount of deposit that they have supplied.
  • Others may offer to match the deposit supplied by the family member as well as trying to help you secure a mortgage with help from your family.
