What is Online Pre-Reservation?
Buying a home is perhaps the biggest decisions you'll ever make, and at St. Modwen Homes we've made it as easy as possible. When you’ve found the home you want, our online pre-reservation option allows you to take it off the market immediately, all from the comfort of your current home. You can then book an appointment to visit our sales centre to proceed with the formal reservation.
What happens after you Pre-reserve a new home?
- Step 1: You Complete the Pre-reservation Form Online
After clicking the 'Pre-reserve this home now' button on any of our plots, you'll be prompted to fill out a brief form online and pay a fee of £150.
- Step 2: Confirmation and The Next Steps
Once your pre-reservation is complete, our Development Sales Manager will reach out to you within 72 hours to discuss your next steps. They’ll also schedule an appointment for you to visit our sales centre within the next 5 days. At this visit, we will discuss all the information about the purchase and, if you’re happy, you can finalise your reservation by paying the remaining reservation fee.
What If Something Changes?
If we can't contact you within 72 hours, for whatever reason, or you don't complete the reservation within the specified 5-day window, we reserve the right to cancel your pre-reservation. If this happens, the £150 fee you paid will be returned to you. Please note that it may take a few days for the refund to appear in your account, depending on your bank’s procedures.
Have I made a Final Reservation?
No, completing an online pre-reservation takes the home you're interested in off the market temporarily. This gives you time to make an informed decision about purchasing the new home without feeling rushed.
The next step: Your Reservation and Welcome Meeting
The reservation will only be completed once you visit our sales centre in person and during this appointment, we’ll take you through all the information you need about not only the home, but also the buying journey. This ensures you fully understand the details of the home you are buying. You'll also be asked to complete any remaining identification checks and complete a formal reservation form. Only once these steps are completed and the remaining reservation fee is paid will your reservation be confirmed.
You can find more information about the documentation you will need to provide and any fees for completing your reservation here.
