new-builds

Recently completed homes

New-builds are newly constructed houses or apartments, as opposed to older properties on the resale market.

The term is primarily British: They're looking at new-builds in the development near the station.

New-builds typically come with modern amenities and warranties but may lack the character of period homes.
