Homebuyers don’t have to spend a fortune to go green when purchasing an energy efficient Arley home. Saving energy and saving money go hand-in-hand with properties from Arley Homes.
Arley uses modern construction methods and materials to ensure its developments adhere to the Government’s stringent eco regulations. Energy efficiency comes as standard with Arley, giving buyers peace of mind and reducing their energy bills. Retrofitting cavity wall insulation, double glazing or a new boiler to an older house can cost hundreds, if not thousands of pounds, in order to match those savings.
The Home Builders Federation estimates new build properties are six times more energy efficient and cut carbon emissions by up to 60 per cent, thereby reducing annual energy bills compared to older properties. With gas and electricity costs set to rise still further, that saving is expected to increase to more than £500 per year.
John Cosgrave, managing director of Arley Homes, said: “Buyers are becoming more conscious of the rising cost of energy bills and some appreciate the energy efficiency benefits of a new home. Awareness of the benefits offered by a new-build property is growing and buyers are beginning to appreciate the huge savings that can be made when homes are designed with sustainability in mind.”
The range properties within the Arley portfolio feature environmentally friendly heat and energy saving technologies including water conservation sanitaryware, double glazing and ever more thermal insulation. By reducing heat loss and water usage, Arley is helping homeowners cut their running costs and energy waste.
New homes offer additional benefits for buyers as, by their nature, they come ready to move into with new kitchens and bathrooms. Arley Homes also promises to oversee any construction maintenance across the development, internally and externally, for the first two years post build.
The leading North West housebuilder is also committed to helping homebuyers who have been hit by the banking contraction as a result of the recent economic downturn. Arley offers a range of packages, which can be tailored to individual homebuyers, including part-exchange, assisted sale, stamp duty and five per cent deposit paid.
Mr Cosgrave added: “Homebuyers have been hit hard by the recent downturn as mortgage agreements have been more difficult to come by and deposit payments and arrangement fees have increased. I would urge buyers to visit our developments and speak to our expert sales advisors to see what sort of help we can offer.”
