Why work with us

New Build Sales

The new-build buying process differs from the resale market in meaningful ways. Stage payments, longstop dates, developer-panel solicitors, reservation fee structures. Most of the friction comes from not knowing what to ask. We work directly with Berkeley Group, Barratt London, and other leading UK developers, which means our buyers get access to launches, pricing, and incentive packages weeks before the public. Our commission is paid by the developer, not by you.

What you get

Built around your outcome

01

Priority launch access

Specialist agents see stock weeks before it hits Rightmove. Our buyers get early pricing, early-bird incentives, and first pick of the best-positioned units in each phase.

02

The incentive stack

Developers routinely offer 3 to 8% of purchase price as stamp duty contribution, legal fees paid, deposit contribution, and furniture packs. We know which ones to ask for and when.

03

Unit-level due diligence

We check the actual floor plan dimensions, aspect, floor level, proximity to plant rooms, and comparable price per square foot against every other available unit in the development.

04

Reservation agreement read in detail

Exchange deadline, deposit structure, refundability conditions, identity of the developer entity. We read it and translate it before you sign.

05

Longstop date protected

For off-plan, we ensure the contract includes a reasonable longstop date (typically 18 to 24 months) so you retain the right to withdraw if the developer drifts past reasonable timelines.

06

Pre-completion walk-through

We coordinate a final inspection of your unit before keys change hands, with photographic record and a written list of any items still to address.

How it works

The seven-stage buying cycle

  1. 01

    Discovery

    Define non-negotiable criteria before viewing a single property. Developer research, planning document review, comparable evidence. The show-flat visit should confirm a thesis, not drive one.

  2. 02

    Financial qualification

    Agreement in Principle obtained. Broker briefed on stage payments and developer-panel requirements for off-plan.

  3. 03

    Unit selection

    Specific unit floor plan requested, not the marketing plan. Site visit to understand the immediate environment. Price per square foot benchmarked against every comparable.

  4. 04

    Reservation

    Reservation agreement reviewed. Fee and terms confirmed. Exchange timeline negotiated where needed.

  5. 05

    Conveyancing

    Specialist conveyancer appointed. Ground rent, restrictive covenants, management structure, and warranty documents reviewed in detail.

  6. 06

    Exchange

    Contract terms confirmed, longstop date protected, deposit protection arrangements verified.

  7. 07

    Completion

    Pre-completion walk-through. Written rectification commitments where needed. Photographic record of the unit at handover. Keys released once conditions are met.

FAQ

Questions, answered

What does your service cost?

Nothing. Our commission is paid by the developer on completion. The guidance, viewings, scheme advice, negotiation support, and aftercare are all included at no cost to you.

Am I tied in if I work with you?

No. There is no exclusivity, no sign-up fee, no commitment until you choose to reserve a unit through us.

Is the reservation fee refundable?

It depends on the developer and the reservation agreement. Most are non-refundable if you withdraw, but refundable if the developer fails to meet contractual obligations. We review every clause before you sign.

How does stage payment work off-plan?

Deposit at exchange (typically 10 to 25%), balance on completion. Some developers request phased deposits at construction milestones. Your lender must agree to these terms before you proceed.

What happens if construction is delayed?

The longstop date in your contract protects you. If the developer misses it, you retain the right to withdraw and recover your deposit. We ensure this clause is fair at exchange.
