When your heart is set upon buying a new build home, you want to secure your perfect plot and move in as soon as possible. But unless you’re a first-time buyer, you’ll have to go through the process of selling your current property first – which could be so much easier thanks to Bellway’s Part Exchange and Express Mover schemes.

Both designed to help take the stress out of moving home, Part Exchange and Express Mover are exclusive to Bellway, and available at developments across the UK. We explain how each scheme works, what you need to know, and why one of these schemes might be right for you in your Bellway home journey.

What is Part Exchange and how does it work?

  • We buy your current property so you can buy your dream Bellway home
  • You pay no estate agent or advertising fees
  • You stay in your home until your new Bellway home is ready

With Bellway’s Part Exchange scheme, it couldn’t be easier to sell your current home and buy a new build property – because we buy your home from you and put it on the market, leaving you free to choose your dream Bellway home.

You agree to sell your home to Bellway, and we appoint a minimum of two independent estate agents to carry out valuations to determine its market value. An offer will be made to you, and if accepted, you can then proceed to reserve your preferred plot at your chosen Bellway development.

A fantastic advantage of the Part Exchange scheme is that you won’t have any estate agent or advertising fees to pay, potentially saving you thousands on the cost of moving home. What’s more, you can stay in your current home until your new one is ready, which means you don’t need to manage timescales or experience pressure to move quickly from anyone below you in the chain.

The Part Exchange scheme is available on selected plots and developments, so speak to your Bellway sales advisor at your preferred development to find out what is on offer to you.

What is Express Mover and how does it work?

  • We sell your current property to make your new Bellway home journey easier
  • You pay no estate agent fees
  • Widely available at Bellway developments across the UK

When you just want to get moving to your perfect new build home, Bellway’s Express Mover scheme could be the right option for you. Bellway will work with a recommended local agent to sell your home as quickly as possible, and we’ll even take care of your estate agent fees, meaning you’ll save money that you can put towards other costs of moving home.

Your Bellway sales advisor will pass on your details to our Intermediary Management Agent (IMA) who will contact you to arrange visits from independent local estate agents, in order to carry out a valuation and Property Appraisal. Once you agree a price for your home, the IMA will instruct the estate agent to put it on the market, and you’ll be kept updated on how it progresses.

As soon as a buyer is found for your home and their offer is accepted, your sales advisor will invite you to make an appointment to reserve your dream Bellway home.

The Express Mover scheme is available at a broad number of Bellway developments, so speak to your sales advisor at your preferred development for full details and to discuss its suitability for your circumstances.

Both are fantastic schemes that are designed to make the process of buying your dream Bellway home easier and smoother, plus save you thousands of pounds on the cost of moving home, as you won’t have estate fees to pay when you use either scheme. Part Exchange and Express Mover are available across many Bellway developments in the UK, and our sales advisor at your preferred development(s) is always best placed to inform you of current availability.
