SAVING YOU MONEY
**According to the Home Builders Federation, on average, our new homes are 21% cheaper to run compared to older properties, saving you up to £420 a year on your energy bills. With energy prices high, there has never been a better time to buy new.
Potential savings increase even further when comparing the EPC ratings of new builds to the least efficient properties. The majority of our new-build homes achieve an A or B EPC rating, making the average new build 39% cheaper to run, at around £618 a year less than an older home with an F or G EPC rating.**
GREEN MORTGAGES
By buying a new energy efficient Bovis Home you could take advantage of exclusive ‘Green’ mortgage products. A mortgage lender could offer lower interest rates on properties that carry an energy performance certificate or a predicted energy assessment rating of A – C. Think of it as a reward for buyers who are purchasing an energy efficient home. The majority of our homes have a rating of A or B so this type of mortgage may be ideal if you are looking to purchase a new build home.
KEEPING YOU COSY
Unlike older properties, our homes come with high efficiency double glazing as standard, letting plenty of light and warmth in while minimising heat loss and reducing the amount of noise you’ll hear within your home. Not only do they keep you cosy they also reduce the amount of external noise that you’ll hear within your home.
Additional roof and floor insulation are among the other unseen features included with our homes that will help reduce the costs of keeping your home warm in the winter months, while also keeping you cool in the summer.
REDUCING WATER USAGE
Our kitchens and bathrooms incorporate water saving measures, without compromising on style or functionality.
These features mean our homes use up to 20% less water* than the UK average. Our taps and showers use aerated technology to provide the feeling of a strong flow, whilst using less water. Plus, our dual low flush toilets use the minimum amount of water to ensure less waste.
*Average Bovis home uses 100-110 litres/person/day compared to UK average of 140 litres/person/day according to the Energy Savings Trust
