All flooring is down and all walls and ceilings are painted in a neutral colour, tiling where appropriate in hall, kitchen and bathrooms. Appliances to kitchen are fitted. Sanitary ware to wc, bathroom and ensuite are fitted.
The Show Home finish is the same standard that each home is completed to; but without the furniture or paint colours. We dress / decorate our Show Homes to give an impression of how a finished home may look.
No, we believe we have set the correct asking price based on current market value.
This means that you can purchase confidently and with no worries about getting into a bidding situation or gazumping (when another buyer offers more for a house after you have already agreed the sale). If you have the deposit ready and are ready to move then you can book the site of your choice.
Yes, we are happy to accept purchasers who are buying through Co-ownership.

The booking fee is £500 and is given to the Estate Agent upon booking. If for any reason a sale does not proceed then £300 is non-refundable due to administration costs.
The specification of our homes is above that set by NHBC and as such we believe it includes everything you need. A full list of our turnkey specification is detailed in our sales brochure.
However changes can be discussed after booking to see if they can be accommodated, please note that any structural modifications cannot be carried out. Changes will only be made after a contract has been signed and costs agreed.
Hagan Homes meet all regulations on soundproofing, as directed by building control and NHBC. Apartment owners can take steps to ensure that noise levels are kept to a minimum by keeping the carpet or tiles that is part of the Turnkey package rather than replacing with wooden or laminate flooring.

An EPC provides a rating of the energy efficiency and carbon emissions of a property on a scale from A (very efficient) to G (very inefficient). They are produced using standard methods with standard assumptions about energy usage so that the energy efficiency of a property can be easily compared with another of the same type. They allow the purchaser to see and compare information and consider energy efficiency and fuel costs as part of their investment decision.
An example EPC rating for a home we build is listed below:
Semi-detached House B83 - The current average rating for a property in Northern Ireland is D57 meaning that our homes are well above average.
Rates are decided by Land & Property Services, part of the Dept of Finance & Personnel. Their website is www.dfpni.gov.uk/lps where you can find a calculator to work out an approximate rateable value dependant on property value.
Due to a change in legislation, new developments need to have a Management Company in order to maintain all communal areas.
This has many benefits for purchasers including:
All purchasers within the development become Shareholders of the Management Company upon completion. There will be regular meetings giving homeowners the power to influence decisions within their development on costs and fees, maintenance, repairs etc. Approximate fees for houses and apartments can be obtained from our Selling Agents.
Get in touch with us via email info@haganhomes.co.uk and we will answer any additional queries you may have.
We chose our new home as we both grew up in the area and wanted to stay close to our parents.
The house stood out because of its size and value with a great downstairs living space and garden. The turnkey specification of the house is fantastic and we are thrilled with the detail that went into everything.
We love our new home.
We chose our house as it was very well designed, the room sizes are good with a great layout making it a very comfortable and sociable home.
I think our house was great value for money due to its size, location, the specification and the finish. Being able to choose our internal package was a nice option to make the house our own.
We have just moved into our third Hagan Home.
As we are downsizing, we thought it was important to buy a new home with a great energy rating which would be easy to maintain. We love the excellent quality of finish in our Hagan Home, and the room sizes and layout makes it the perfect home.
As first time buyers, we were sure we wanted a new build home.
The location of the development was a great selling point, so close to Ballymena town yet it is a very private area. When we visited the Hagan Show Home the quality of finish was superior to other developments we had visited, it really stood out to us.
