Buying a new build comes with unique steps and timelines. We’ll help you navigate the
process with clear advice, from reservation to completion — so you know exactly where
you stand.




New build purchases often move faster and require attention to detail. We’ll review the contract, check the developer’s obligations, and make sure everything is in place — from planning permissions to warranties and completion deadlines. We’ll also liaise with your mortgage lender and ensure you’re protected if anything changes with the development.
We work quickly, clearly, and proactively to meet tight deadlines and protect your interests.
We’ve helped many clients buy newly built homes and we understand the pace, pressure, and paperwork involved. Our local knowledge and experience help keep things simple.
We’re proud to be the legal partner of choice for so many individuals and families. Here’s what our clients have to say about working with Heppenstalls.

These can include long stop dates, delays, or unfinished works. We’ll explain everything clearly before you sign.
No, we do not deal with Shared Ownership transactions. However, we are happy to recommend solicitors who specialise in this area.
Possibly — but some changes may carry a cost or need agreement from the developer. We’ll advise you on this.
It varies, but we’ll work to the developer’s timeframe and keep you updated at every step.
