The VEFA: understanding everything before
to buy a new home
Buying a new off-plan property with C&V Habitat
The Sale in the Future State of Completion (VEFA), better known as off-plan sales, allows you to buy a new home before it is built or during the works. This method of acquisition is now one of the most secure ways to become the owner of a new house or apartment.
At C&V Habitat, we support buyers in Haute-Savoie, Savoie and Pays de Gex in their off-plan real estate projects by offering programs designed to meet the requirements of comfort, quality and energy performance.

What is the VEFA?
The VEFA is a regulated contract that allows you to acquire a new home whose construction has not yet been completed.
When you sign your contract, you gradually become the owner of the property as it progresses. The developer undertakes to carry out the construction in accordance with the plans, the planned services and the schedule set out in the contract.
This system is governed by law in order to protect the buyer throughout the project.

How does a VEFA purchase work?
The purchase of a new home follows several steps.
After choosing your future property, you sign a reservation contract specifying the characteristics of the accommodation, its estimated price and the completion time.
A few months later, the authentic deed is signed at the notary's office. Payments are then made by calls for funds, only according to the actual progress of the work.
Finally, once the work is completed, you will visit your home before the official handover of the keys.
At C&V Habitat, each step is the subject of personalized support to allow you to follow the progress of your project with peace of mind.

Why choose a VEFA purchase?
Buying a new home has many advantages. You benefit from a property that meets the latest construction standards, offers an excellent level of thermal and acoustic comfort, as well as high energy performance thanks to the RE2020 Environmental Regulations. You also benefit from a modern home, designed with recent materials and requiring little maintenance during the first few years.
Another advantage is the possibility of customising certain equipment and finishes according to the progress of the site. Flooring, earthenware, equipment or even interior design can often be adapted to your desires.

Secure acquisition
One of the main advantages of the VEFA lies in the level of security it offers.
Contrary to some preconceived ideas, buying off-plan is now a particularly regulated investment.
These guarantees protect you before, during and after the delivery of your home.

Reduced notary fees
The purchase of a new off-plan home also allows you to benefit from reduced notary fees.
They generally represent between 2 and 3% of the price of the property, compared to about 7 to 8% in old properties.
This difference is a significant financial advantage when acquiring your main residence or a real estate investment.
