How we work in York
No homes for sale yet
Land to Homes is a new business. We have no developments, listings or reservations open, and we will not ask you for a deposit to register interest.
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.
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.
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 York
Renting a new home in York? 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 York: questions
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.
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.
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.
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.
Are there new homes available in York now?
Not yet. Land to Homes has no homes available in York at the moment. You can register your interest for York, and we will contact you if we bring homes forward there or nearby.
