What to know about new build housing

When we talk about new-build housing, we must be clear about what we are referring to, and know what definitions encompass this term, here are some of them:

• A newly constructed dwelling is a dwelling that has been purchases directly from the developer property when the construction or renovation is completed. Unless it has been inhabited for a period of two years or more by persons other than the purchasers.
• In the event that, once the works have been completed, the developer rents the property and, after two years, puts it up for sale and it is acquired by the tenants themselvesis also considered as new construction.
• There is also the possibility of buying a new off-plan housing.

Knowing the term, we can disentangle the attractions and advantages that a new-build home offers.

Its main attraction is its versatility and adaptability. They draw on the needs of homeowners to build the perfect home. Larger and brighter spaces, accompanied by communal leisure areas such as parks, swimming pools and sports facilities. In addition, they usually include more secure and digitised installations that must include energy efficiency measures, according to the new Technical Building Code (CTE) regulations.

On the other hand, housing in new buildings are built to the standards determined by the current market. and, for this reason, may be more convenient.

• It does not need refurbishment. This is one of the main reasons why sales of new-build properties remain steady from one year to the next. The fact of not having to carry out a complete refurbishment means savings in costs and time, as it is possible to move in as soon as the property is handed over.
• Brand new and with a choice. The prospect of finding a finished, ready-to-live-in home where everything is brand new attracts buyers' interest.
