What we offer in Amersham

Consumer protection explained

We explain the New Homes Quality Code and the New Homes Ombudsman Service in neutral terms, so you know what protections to look for when buying any new home.

Affordable routes signposted

If you need shared ownership or another affordable route, we explain how eligibility works. It is set by councils and housing providers, not by us.

New-build warranties explained

Most mortgage lenders expect a new home to carry a recognised structural warranty. We explain what warranties cover, and what they do not, in plain terms.

Information before you commit

Before any home is reserved, buyers should receive the specification, tenure, warranty details and any service or estate charges in writing.

How the rules work in Amersham

Buying a new-build home in Amersham follows the usual English process: an offer, conveyancing, exchange of contracts, which makes the purchase binding, and completion. Many buyers arrange a snagging inspection to find defects. New homes are usually covered by a structural warranty, and developers registered under the New Homes Quality Code give buyers access to the New Homes Ombudsman Service. We have no homes on sale yet, so register your interest to hear about future homes.

In England, buyers usually pay Stamp Duty Land Tax and the purchase is registered with HM Land Registry. Many developers register with the New Homes Quality Board and follow its code. New homes must meet the Building Regulations, and estates often carry management charges where roads or open space are not adopted, so check these before reserving.

Common questions in Amersham

Does Land to Homes have any new homes for sale?

Not yet. Land to Homes is a new venture and has no homes, developments or plots for sale or reservation 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 never ask for a deposit to register interest.

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

Check the specification and what is included, the tenure and any lease terms, estate or service charges for roads and open space, the warranty and who provides it, and the reservation terms. Ask whether the developer is registered with the New Homes Quality Board. Instruct your own solicitor early, and visit the site if you can.

What does the New Homes Ombudsman Service do?

It handles complaints from buyers of new homes built by developers registered with the New Homes Quality Board, once the developer's own complaints process has been used. It can direct a registered developer to put things right. Buyers should check whether a developer is registered before reserving, because the service only covers registered developers.

What is the New Homes Quality Code?

The New Homes Quality Code is a code of practice set by the New Homes Quality Board, an independent body. Developers who register with the board agree to follow it, covering marketing, reservations, handover and after-sales service, and their buyers can usually take unresolved complaints to the New Homes Ombudsman Service. The framework currently covers England, Scotland and Wales.

Can I register for new homes in Amersham?

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