Rules for each nation
Buying is different in each nation, from missives in Scotland to Land Transaction Tax in Wales. We point you to the rules that apply where you want to live.

Planning and land rules in Armagh
Renting in Armagh? Private tenancies in Northern Ireland are governed by the Private Tenancies (Northern Ireland) Order 2006, strengthened by the Private Tenancies Act (Northern Ireland) 2022, which brought in longer notice-to-quit periods and limits on deposits. Buyers sign and exchange contracts through a solicitor, then complete, and pay Stamp Duty Land Tax as in England. New homes usually carry a structural warranty. Land to Homes has no homes available yet; register interest.
In Northern Ireland, Stamp Duty Land Tax applies and title is registered with Land & Property Services. Shared ownership is offered mainly through Co-Ownership, a not-for-profit housing association. The New Homes Quality Board framework is focused on England, Scotland and Wales, so buyers should check the warranty and complaints arrangements a developer offers.

Questions about New-Build Homes for Sale in Armagh
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 a new-build warranty?
It is an insurance-backed policy covering certain defects in a newly built home for a set period after completion. Typically the builder must put right most defects in the early part of the cover, and the warranty provider covers major structural problems later. Most mortgage lenders require a recognised warranty or a professional consultant's certificate before lending on a new home.
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 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.

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