House Builder Services
 
Combining my Estate Agency experience with over 15 years within the House Building industry, I offer a range of freelance services to Housebuilders, Developers and Architects.
 
I am available on a "when needed" basis and offer  services ranging from the initial appraisal of a development opportunity through to Home Information Packs and sales support.
 

Detailed Market Research

A full £ per square foot analysis of both New Build and established properties within the area of a proposed Development is completed.  This provides an overview of the entire market place within an area and allows an informed decision to be made at the design stage about the size and style of properties to be built. 

Off Plan Valuations 

Offered as a package with Market Research, these reports can be used for a variety of purposes including:

Calculation of Gross Development Value prior to submitting a land offer

To support an application for development funding

Assessment of the most suitable house type, size and specification to acheive the optimum return

On Site Sales Cover

I have considerable "on site" sales experience including 5 years with Barratt's, and am available to cover for holidays, sickness or when an extra pair of hands may be needed such as at the launch of a new site 

Competitor Reports

Competitor reports provide useful and updated information of other new developments within the area and can be prepared on a monthly basis

Reservation and Handover Packs

Whilst many purchasers will be familiar with the housebuying process for an existing property, buying a new home raises all manner of questions from details of the gas and electric supplier through to warranties, extras, completion dates, having carpets fitted etc. 

By providing a professionally prepared Reservation Pack when the reservation form is completed, Builders and Developers are able to give their purchasers a complete guide to buying their property including information about the Developer, the reservation process, what action the buyer needs to take and when it needs to be done together with comprehensive answers to the more frequently asked questions.

Tailored to the Development, I produce Reservation Packs for all the plots currently on release allowing them to be given to a buyer by your Sales staff when a reservation is taken.

All new appliances will have instruction booklets and these along with other information and documents including the NHBC Health & Safety Card/Booklet and key release form with meter readings can be presented with the keys on completion day.  A Handover Pack allows all this necessary information to be presented in a personalised and professional Pack. 

Working with a Developer, Handover Packs are prepared in advance of completion ready for providing to a purchaser.

In the future, when the purchaser moves again, Handover Packs are frequently left for the new owner providing excellent advertising and promotion for the Developer.

Preparation of floor and site plans

Working with specialists who produce CAD plans, floor and site plans can be prepared to include within a sales brochure

Home Information Packs

From 6th April 2008, Builders and Developers will be required to prepare a Home Information Pack for properties sold off plan and any completed units being offered for sale. 

In addition to the other mandatory documents, off plan sales will require SAP, and completed units will need to have an on construction Energy Performance Certificate.

Complete New Build HIPs can be provided.
