If you’ve recently moved home, you might want to look away now. Because a housebuilder in Exeter has just launched a special 'Kill Bill' offer which could save homebuyers nearly £40,000 in bills and moving costs.
The offer from Verto Homes is available until the end of February on a selection of award-winning Zero Carbon Smart Homes at Nexa Fields in Pinhoe.
Verto says they’re taking the financial sting out of moving, so the price of the home is the price you pay. It really is as simple as that.
Let’s look at all the bills being banished by this offer – and imagine what you could do with the savings.
Zero stamp duty
The first bill to go is also one of the biggest. The homes included in this offer are listed at £585,000 which would normally land you with a stamp duty charge of £16,750 (or £8,000 if you’re a first-time buyer).
This offer completely removes stamp duty from the cost of moving house, saving you enough to buy a new car or take your family on holiday to Australia.
Zero energy bills
Thanks to the homes’ incredible energy efficiency, they’re ‘Zero Bills’ certified by energy supplier Octopus. This will save you an estimated £3,458 per year when moving from a typical dual-fuel home.
And Octopus guarantee this saving for at least five years, which adds up to an estimated £17,290. If you’ve ever dreamed of repaying your mortgage early, this could take a big bite out of a major household expense.
Zero water bills and council tax
The next bills on the chopping block are water and council tax. The 'Kill Bill' offer frees you from both for the first year in your new home, saving you up to £3,000. That’s enough to pay for a European adventure or enjoy lunch out every day for a year.
Zero legal fees
The final bill to meet its end with this offer is conveyancing costs. Solicitors typically charge between £1,500 and £2,000 to take care of the legal paperwork involved with moving home.
Taking these costs off the table will pocket you enough for an annual membership to a high-quality gym or a weekend in a luxury hotel.
Take advantage of this offer
This offer is exclusively available on a collection of four-bedroom, three-bathroom detached homes called ‘The Otter’.
All feature open-plan living spaces, high-spec kitchens, integrated solar panels and heat pumps – in a Pinhoe development that was awarded ‘Winner of Winners’ at the 2023 Exeter Property Awards.
You need to reserve your purchase by the end of February 2024. But please be aware there are a limited number of qualifying homes available, offered on a first-come first-serve basis.
