The English system, as it applies in Portsmouth

Renting a new home in Portsmouth? In England, most private tenancies are now assured periodic tenancies with no fixed end date, and since 1 May 2026 landlords can no longer use section 21 no-fault evictions. New-build buyers usually receive a structural warranty and buy through exchange of contracts and completion, paying Stamp Duty Land Tax where it is due. Land to Homes has no homes for sale or rent yet, but you can register your interest.

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.

New-Build Homes for Sale in Portsmouth: questions

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.

Can I buy a new home through shared ownership?

Shared ownership and other affordable home ownership routes are usually provided by housing associations and other registered providers, sometimes on homes built by developers. Eligibility and the share you can buy are set by the provider and the scheme rules, not by us. If affordable homes form part of a site we bring forward, we will tell you who to contact.

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.

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.

Not yet. Land to Homes has no homes available in Portsmouth at the moment. You can register your interest for Portsmouth, and we will contact you if we bring homes forward there or nearby.
