Benefits of self-build

Since Brexit in 2016, which caused property market uncertainty, new, individual and bespoke houses available on the market have become few and far between.

 

BlackSand Asset Management specialise in finding building plots, getting planning consents and making the plots available to private buyers to build there own houses, either with our support for individual stage or as a total development package, or for buyers to self build.

 

Advantages of Buying a Plot and Building your own House.

 

There are many, but here are the main ones:
 

  • You will only pay Stamp Duty on the value of the plot

  • You make the developers profit

  • Your finished house will have cost a lot less than buying it finished on the open market.

  • You can make design changes at an early stage so the house fits your needs

  • You can specify the level of finish you want

  • It is even possible to change the house style completely subject to planning.
     

If you are not a builder yourself, as a Development Consultant, BlackSand can provide a complete package to build your house, including discharge of planning conditions, construction drawings from engaging the contractor, managing the project, to interior design and furnishing. 

If you require finance or a mortgage, our involvement will be essential for the lenders to have confidence.
