Whether you have your heart set on an older property or a new build home, there are always questions and concerns that may make you think twice before making a decision.
Below, you will see a list of the most common myths that surround new builds and how a Brampton Valley Home is different!
New build homes are more expensive
While older properties may appear cheaper at first glance, when you consider appliances, renovations and energy efficiency, the costs of an older property eventually far exceed that of a new build home. On average, renovations could incur unexpected bills for anything between £400 and £16,000+, with a replacement kitchen retailing for at least £10,000.
Our homes meet all current building regulations, use the highest quality materials available, and include pristine plumbing and wiring so you can simply move in with little to no hidden expenses, and enjoy the brand new kitchen that comes complete with integrated appliances from a leading brand.
New build homes do not have enough space
While some may believe large-volume builders try to squeeze in as many plots as possible onto the land they are building on, we take the opposite approach.
We only choose to develop on land that is capable of comfortably meeting our rigorous standards, to ensure each home can be designed by our architects. This provides residents with limitless storage options, plus a wealth of space to host friends and family alike, whether you live in a 2-bedroom or 6-bedroom home.
New build homes are located in the middle of nowhere
It may be true that there is a significant amount of land in very remote areas that house builders are trying to snap up, at Brampton Valley Homes, we take great care to ensure that our customers move into a home that can meet the needs of the contemporary household.
All of our developments are located in just the right place to keep you close to schools, transport links and various other amenities you cannot live without.
Modern homes are bad for the environment
Thanks to continuous advancement in the manufacturing and engineering sectors, the emissions produced in the production of housebuilding materials have been reduced.
The HBF ‘Watt a Save’ report from July 2023 found that the home building industry collectively reduced household carbon emissions by a staggering 500,000 tonnes last year, saving residents more than £400 million in energy costs.
Ongoing analysis finds that energy bills for new build homes average at around 55% cheaper, saving the typical household £135 per month on day-to-day running costs due to the use of modern insulation techniques in addition to heating and lighting systems to suit a variety of house types and supply options.
