How to buy a new-build home
- 1Follow the plan
A housing project starts as a detailed development plan. The plan goes through consultation and review, is adopted, and gains legal force if no one appeals within three weeks of the decision being posted. Only then can a building permit be granted.
- 2Register interest
The developer opens an interest list as sales approach. Registering is not binding. New rental flats are often let through the Stockholm housing agency (Bostadsförmedlingen).
- 3Reservation
At the sales launch you reserve a home, often against a fee. Check the terms if you withdraw.
- 4Preliminary agreement
A preliminary agreement (förhandsavtal) under the Tenant-Owner Act (1991:614) is an agreement that the flat will be granted later. The association must have a cost estimate reviewed by two certifiers. Any advance payment must be secured.
- 5Grant agreement
Once the association's economic plan is registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office, the flat can be granted. The plan states costs, loans and estimated fees and must be reviewed by two certifiers approved by Boverket. If the flat is granted before the final cost is known, a deposit guarantee (insatsgaranti) is required.
- 6Access and moving in
The deposit is paid on access. The association then takes over the building from the developer; inspections and guarantees are set out in the contract between the association and the contractor.
