How the rules work in County Londonderry
Buying a new-build home in County Londonderry 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, 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.

New-Build Homes for Sale in County Londonderry: questions
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.
Is buying a new home different in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland?
Yes. In Scotland the purchase is concluded through missives exchanged between solicitors, Land and Buildings Transaction Tax applies, and a Home Report is not needed for the first sale of a newly built home. Wales has Land Transaction Tax, while England and Northern Ireland use Stamp Duty Land Tax. A solicitor in the relevant nation can explain the detail.
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.
How does registering interest work?
You give us your contact details, the areas you are interested in, the type and size of home you need and your rough timing. We use that to contact you about relevant new homes and to understand demand when we plan sites. It is free, it is not a reservation and you can ask us to remove your details at any time.
