What does buying off-plan mean?
You have read the brochure, viewed the plans and poured over the property specification. You have researched and fallen in love with the location and you are impressed with our track record. Now you want to learn more about making a reservation. The majority of our homes are reserved and sold before they have been fully built. This is known as buying off-plan. We have prepared this guide to help you understand the benefits and the process.
