new build

Recently completed property

A new build is a newly constructed house or building, as opposed to an older property: We're looking at new builds in the development.

The term is especially common in British real estate, where it distinguishes recently completed homes from period properties or renovations.

New builds often come with warranties and modern energy efficiency but may lack the character of older structures.
