When you are considering buying a house – either for the first time or to move on – one of the primary considerations is likely to be whether to opt for a new build or to explore the second-hand market.
There are benefits to both, of course, but we would argue new-builds offer convenience, quality and energy-efficiency that make them a shrewd investment.
Hassle-free purchasing
Buying a property from the existing housing stock can be a long process, with conveyancing taking many months from offer accepted to completion.
Then there is always the risk of someone in the chain pulling out at the 11th hour, leading to stress, disappointment and unnecessary expense.
When you buy new-build, on the other hand, you are chain-free. The experienced sales advisors at Boningale Homes will take you through the process step-by-step and, when your property has been built to the highest standards, you are able to move in straight away.
Ready to go
A new build is freshly plastered, decorated, wired and tiled. Everything is ready for you from the second you first turn the key – all you have to do is unpack.
All integrated appliances are brand new and under warranty, along with the heating system and showers. This is invariably not the case for older properties, which are highly likely to have unexpected problems or at least some work required straight away, whether that is decorating or something far more costly.
Energy efficiency
All of our homes are built to the very highest energy standards, with either an A or a B rating. This is achieved with fully insulated walls and roofs and efficient heating systems.
This means that your energy bills will typically be considerably lower than in an older property, helping you to save money.
Many Boningale properties, such as those on Phase 3 at Millfields, also benefit from solar panels and electric vehicle charging points.
Warranties
Our homes come with a NHBC 10 year warranty, offering ultimate peace of mind. That means if the unlikely event that anything does go wrong with your property, you are covered for a decade.
Boningale Homes is signed up to The New Homes Quality Board (NHQB), a non-profit organisation dedicated to improving the quality of new homes and customer service.
This membership offers customers the reassurance of robust processes and transparency.
Blank canvas
Boningale customers benefit from five different paint colours, allowing you to customise the property to your taste.
Even so, you are still moving into a home with a blank canvas, allowing you to decorate each room to your personal taste. There’s no woodchip wallpaper to remove, no badly painted ceilings, no dog-haired carpets – just clean, fresh walls and floors ready for your inspiration.
Become part of a new community
We believe in creating vibrant, fresh communities. When you move into a new build, all of your neighbours will be in the same boat having just joined the community themselves.
This presents a fantastic opportunity for making new friends and building relationships with the people around you.
