Your journey to zero
Buying a Verto home, step by step
Buying a brand-new zero carbon home is different from buying second-hand — simpler in many ways, with no chain above you and a home that is ready for the future. Here is exactly what happens, from first look to picking up your keys.
1
Find your home
Browse our developments, visit a show home and talk to our sales team about plots, specifications and build timelines.
2
Reserve
Choose your plot and pay a reservation fee. Your plot is taken off the market and the price is fixed.
3
Instruct your solicitor
Appoint a solicitor and, if you need one, a mortgage adviser. Our team can recommend specialists in new-build purchases.
4
Exchange contracts
Usually within six weeks of reserving. Your deposit is paid and your purchase is legally secure.
5
Watch it take shape
We keep you updated as your home is built, with quality inspections and an invitation to a home demonstration before completion.
6
Completion and move-in
Funds transfer, you collect your keys, and our aftercare team stays on hand as you settle into zero carbon living.
