The Welsh system, as it applies in Hawarden

In Wales, planning applications for new homes in Hawarden are decided by the local planning authority, usually the county or county borough council, using its Local Development Plan, Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040. Landowners can sell outright or through an option or promotion agreement in which the planning work is funded for them and recovered only from a sale with planning. Land to Homes offers a free site appraisal and covers your reasonable legal fees on option and promotion agreements.

Affordable homes in Hawarden are mainly provided by councils and registered social landlords, often with Welsh Government Social Housing Grant, and can include social rent, intermediate rent and shared ownership. Private renters hold standard occupation contracts, and landlords must keep homes fit for human habitation. Buying a new home means paying Land Transaction Tax where it applies. Land to Homes plans homes for sale and rent in Wales and invites you to register interest.

Land and homes in Hawarden: questions

What is a new-build warranty?

It is an insurance-backed policy covering certain defects in a new home for a set period after completion. The builder is usually responsible for most defects early in the cover, and the warranty provider covers major structural problems later. Most mortgage lenders expect a recognised warranty, or a professional consultant's certificate, before they lend on a new home.

How do I register interest in a new home?

Tell us your contact details, preferred areas, the type and size of home, whether you want to buy or rent, and your timing. Registering is free, it is not a reservation or an application, and you can ask us to remove your details at any time. We use it to contact you and to understand what people need.

Do you have any new homes for sale or rent?

Not yet. Land to Homes is a new venture and has no homes, plots or developments for sale or rent at the moment. You can register interest with the area and type of home you want, and we will contact you if we bring forward homes that match. We do not take reservations, fees or deposits at this stage.

What should I check before reserving any new-build home?

Check the specification, the tenure and any lease terms, estate or service charges for unadopted roads and open space, the warranty provider, the reservation terms and whether the developer is registered with the New Homes Quality Board. Instruct your own solicitor early, visit the site if you can and ask for everything important in writing.

We do. We work with landowners in Hawarden and elsewhere in Clwyd, including Deeside, Rhosllannerchrugog and Colwyn Bay. Send us a postcode and we will start with a free, no-obligation appraisal of what the land could take.
