Buying a new build home is your chance to create a space that’s completely your own. To make your journey as smooth as possible, we’ve put together this simple guide to help you understand what to expect when buying a new build Lancet Home.
1
Research Your Ideal Location
Start by exploring your preferred areas in the North West. Browse our developments online or visit potential neighbourhoods to get a feel for local amenities, schools, transport links, and the type of property that suits your lifestyle.
2
Get Your Finances in Order
Understand your budget and arrange an Agreement in Principle (AIP) with a mortgage provider. If you don’t have one, we can introduce you to our recommended, independent Financial Advisors. It’s also a great time to explore our home buying schemes like Part Exchange or Assisted Move.
3
Choose Your Development
Our website has everything you need—available plots, house types, site features, and visiting information—to help you choose the home that best fits your needs.
4
Visit a Show Home
Book an appointment to view one of our show homes and experience the layout, finishes, and quality of a Lancet Home. Our friendly Sales Advisors are available to answer your questions, and many sales suites are open over the weekend.
5
Select Your Plot
Once you’ve chosen your ideal house type, select your plot based on location within the development, proximity to green spaces, views, and access points. Use our interactive site plans to visualise your options.
6
Reserve Your New Home
Secure your chosen plot with a small reservation fee and signed reservation form. This takes your home off the market and officially starts the buying process.
7
Finalise Mortgage & Conveyancing
With your home reserved, complete your mortgage application and appoint a conveyancing solicitor. They’ll handle the legal side, including searches, contracts, and communication.
8
Add Your Personal Touch
Depending on your plot and build stage, you may be able to personalise your home. Choose finishes like kitchen styles and colours—just speak to your Sales Advisor to see what’s available.
9
Exchange Contracts & Complete
Once contracts are exchanged, your purchase becomes legally binding. You’ll pay your deposit (typically 5–20%) and then complete the purchase when the remaining funds are transferred. Your solicitor will guide you through this process.
10
Move In & Aftercare
It’s time to move in and make your house a home! Be sure to ask your Sales Advisor about our after-sales care, designed to give you peace of mind in your new property.
While the process may vary slightly for each buyer, this guide gives you a clear idea of what to expect when buying a new build with Lancet Homes.
