NewBuy - 95% Mortgages
A government backed guarantee scheme
The Government has announced support for a new mortgage scheme in England called the new build indemnity scheme to make available 95% loan to value mortgages.
The scheme will be available to a limited number of buyers only able to afford a 5% deposit (subject to approval by a participating mortgage provider).
We aim to make these 95% mortgages available to our customers as soon as possible. We will update this page as soon as further information is available.

BloorHomesStart 2
Own 100% of your property
You pay an agreed percentage of the price before you move in, then pay the remaining percentage (of the current value of the property) when you decide to sell. Or you may choose to settle in full at any time within the next 10 years*
BloorHomesStart 2 is a new and exciting scheme by Bloor Homes, which gives you the chance to own 100% of your new home for an agreed percentage of the price now.
With this scheme, it has been shown that it can be cheaper to buy a brand new home rather than rent a property.
Particularly in the current market where the cost of houses is lower than it has been for some time, now is an ideal time to buy, as historically it has been known for properties to recover and increase to above their market value over a 5-10 year period.
Typical Example (based on 90% / 10%):
Purchase a typical Bloor Home priced at £205,000. You pay just 90% (£184,500) of the value at time of purchase. You then have up to 10 years to pay the remaining 10% balance at the current market value at the time of repayment.
This is secured by a second mortgage. i.e if the property is sold or transferred for £210,000 then 10% (£21,000) is payable to the company plus costs. Likewise if the property was to be sold or transferred for £200,000 then 10% (£20,000) is payable to the company plus costs.
BloorHomesStart 2 is not available with any other offers and is only available on selected plots on selected developments.
"The Property is 100% yours, this is not shared ownership"
Terms and conditions are available on request and any other loan arrangement must be made through Bloor Homes recommended Independent Financial Advisor.
Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage or any other loan secured on it.
* Subject to particular developments and applicants status.
** Offer available on selected plots - subject to applicant's status. A nominal reservation fee on exchange of contracts may be levied
105% Part Exchange
Working together to get you moving
Having a full appreciation of the difficulties of buying a new home, our 105% Part Exchange scheme makes it easier than ever to make the move to the Bloor home of your choice.
Having a full appreciation of the difficulties of buying a new home, our part exchange scheme makes it easier than ever for you to make the move to the Bloor Home of your choice.
How It Works
The company will arrange three valuations of your property by local estate agents. The agents will be asked to provide a price for a six week sale.
If your property is currently on the market, your agent will not necessarily be one of the agents who is asked to prepare valuations unless you have signed a specific contract with that agent, in which case please let us know.
Based on the valuations received Bloor Homes will make you an offer for your home. For a limited period only this will represent 105% of the 'six week sale price'.
If our offer is accepted, you can reserve your new Bloor Home, subject to contract and survey.
In order to reserve your new Bloor Home a deposit of £750 is payable. This is non-refundable.
Once the results of the structural survey are received, we will inform you of any issues, and on the basis that it is satisfactory, you can proceed with your purchase - and leave the rest to us, giving you more time to concentrate on moving to your dream home.
You do not have to worry about purchasers changing their mind and wasted solicitors fees, or agreeing completion dates with a long house chain - it's just you and Bloor Homes working together to help you move on time.
The Bloor Homes Part exchange Scheme is subject to our purchasing criteria and may be withdrawn at any time..
Available on selected plots & for a limited period - Please ask for details.

Part Exchange
Helping you move to a Bloor home
Having a full appreciation of the difficulties of buying a new home, our part exchange scheme makes it easier than ever for you to make the move to Bloor Homes, working together to help you move on time, with no stress.
How it works
The company will select three local estate agents, and arrange for independent valuations of your property.
If your property is currently on the market, your agent will not necessarily be one of the agents who is asked to prepare valuations unless you have signed a specific contract with that agent, in which case please let us know.
We will take an average of the valuations of your property and make you an offer based on that amount.
If our offer is accepted, you can reserve your new Bloor Home, subject to contract and satisfactory structural survey.
You must pay a deposit of £750 which covers the increased administration costs and the possible requirement of a structural survey and is non refundable.
We will help you to choose a solicitor and provide you with independent advice, to ensure that completion of the purchase of your new home is achieved in an agreed timescale.
Once the results of the structural survey are received, we will discuss the report with you, and on the basis that it is satisfactory, you can proceed with your purchase - and leave the rest to us, giving you more time to concentrate on moving to your dream home.
You do not have to worry about purchasers changing their mind and wasted solicitors fees, or agreeing completion dates with a long house chain - it’s just you and Bloor Homes working together to help you move on time, with no stress.

Bloor Homes supports Gurkha
Bloor Homes donated £750 to the Mencap fund
With a development in Nuneaton that has attracted a large number of Gurkha families, house builder Bloor Homes took the opportunity to show its support for Nuneaton’s Gurkha community by sponsoring an afternoon of Nepalese music and dance.
Organised by the Gurkha Nepalese Cultural Group of Nuneaton, the event was held to help raise funds for the charity Mencap.
The event was the brainchild of businessmen Prakash Pun and Om Gurung MBE, both ex-Gurkha soldiers, who wanted to combine charity fundraising with an occasion which would help bring together Gurkha families living in the area with the wider local community.
Bloor Homes donated £750 to the Mencap fund being raised by the afternoon of entertainment at Bedworth Civic Hall. Speaking on behalf of the company, Stuart Brown said: “With the Gurkha Signals Regiment based at Gamecock Barracks, Bramcote, there are now around 300 families living in Nuneaton and we have a number of Gurkha families who have made their home on our development. We were delighted to be able to offer our support to this event which really was a magnificent display of Nepalese culture.”
The event was extremely well attended and guests at the afternoon’s entertainment included Nuneaton Mayor Cllr Don Navarrow, Marcus Jones MP and the High Commissioner of Nepal plus army representatives.
Stuart Brown & Anne Cadman, representatives of Bloor Homes, were delighted to present a cheque for £750 for the Mencap fund to Prakash Pun (chairman) & Babita Gurung (secretary) of the Gurkhas Group on the 19th May at our Nuns Retreat, Nuneaton development.
