Planning and land rules in Portadown

Buying a new-build home in Portadown follows Northern Ireland's conveyancing process: your solicitor checks the title and contract, the purchase becomes binding once contracts are exchanged, and completion follows. Stamp Duty Land Tax applies where it is due. Many buyers arrange a snagging inspection and confirm the structural warranty before completing. Co-Ownership offers shared ownership to eligible buyers. We have no homes for sale yet, but you can register your interest.

In Northern Ireland, private tenancies are governed by the Private Tenancies Order as amended by the Private Tenancies Act 2022, which lengthened notice to quit periods and tightened deposit rules. Private landlords must register with the Landlord Registration Scheme. Social homes are allocated through the Northern Ireland Housing Executive's common waiting list.

Your questions answered for Portadown

How are tenancies different in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland?

In Wales, tenants are contract-holders under occupation contracts set by the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016. Most private tenancies in Scotland are open-ended private residential tenancies. In Northern Ireland, private tenancies are governed by the Private Tenancies Order, as amended by the Private Tenancies Act 2022. Each nation has its own rules on deposits, notice and landlord registration.

Will my deposit be protected?

In most cases, yes. Each nation requires private landlords to protect tenancy deposits in an approved scheme within a set period and to give tenants information about the scheme. The detailed rules differ between England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. If homes we bring forward are let privately, deposits will be handled under the rules that apply.

Does Land to Homes have any homes to rent?

No, not yet. Land to Homes is a new venture and has no homes available to rent. We do not take rental applications, holding deposits or fees at this stage. You can register interest with the area, type of home and timing you need, and we will contact you if we bring forward rental homes that match.

How do I register interest in renting a new home?

Give us your contact details, the areas you are interested in, the type and size of home you need and roughly when you want to move. We use that to contact you about relevant homes and to understand rental demand when we plan sites. It is free, it is not an application and you can ask us to remove your details at any time.

Can I register for new homes in Portadown?

Yes. Registering for Portadown is free and does not commit you to anything. There are no homes available yet; if we bring homes forward in or near Portadown, we will contact you.
