If you’re dreaming of moving to a more spacious and better located home, Cala can make it happen. Find out more about what you need to consider when moving home.
What to consider when moving house
No one could deny that moving home can be a stressful and challenging experience. The good news is that with the right information to hand and some useful resources, the process can run smoothly – and you get to enjoy many years of making memories in your dream home at the end of it.
Whether you’re looking to move to a completely new area, or moving locally but simply looking for space, there are a few key considerations that can help ensure the move is as stress-free as possible.
Making the move simple
When you’re looking to move home, any way you can simplify the process is a huge advantage. Here’s how Cala can help smooth out the process of moving to your dream property:
Assisted Move
Our Assisted Move service allows you to move to your dream Cala home without the usual stresses and costs of buying a property. This involves reserving the Cala home you have your heart set on while we help you secure a purchaser on your existing property.
Part Exchange
Our Part Exchange service means you can move into a new home without a chain – avoiding estate agent fees and survey costs in the process.
Guaranteed Buyer
Our Guaranteed Buyer offering means there’s no need to worry about whether your existing property will sell. Instead, we provide you with a chance to secure an offer on the open market, while our offer remains waiting for you should you need it.
Mortgage Pay
Take a few moments to relax in your new home without worrying about mortgage repayments. Mortgage Pay is our welcome gift to you, the chance to take a break from your monthly mortgage outgoings.
Ready for You
If you’re ready to buy and have your deposit ready, Cala’s ‘Ready For You’ homes could be just what you’re looking for, allowing you to move into your new home in as little as four weeks.

Why Buy New
There’s nothing quite like moving into a brand-new home. From newly-installed kitchens and bathrooms to the peace of mind of knowing that your property is safe, energy efficient and low maintenance. What’s more, you’re buying a complete blank canvas on which to stamp your own individual style.

The advantages of buying new
One of the major benefits of buying new is that it can make a house move significantly less stressful. We often hear customers say that moving to a new Cala property meant there was one less worry during the move, whether that was because of the peace of mind offered by the 10 Year NHBC Buildmark Warranty, or the fact that their Cala home was energy efficient and low maintenance. We’ve listed below some of the top reasons home movers choose to buy a new Cala home.
Reduced DIY/ maintenance
After getting through the often-stressful process of selling your home in advance of buying somewhere new, the value of being able to relax and enjoy your new home cannot be underestimated. A new home makes this possible, as you won’t need to tackle any issues left by the previous owner whether that’s fixing broken doors or painting stained walls.
Energy efficient
Any way to reduce the cost of moving house is always a significant advantage. The chance to move into a property with lower energy bills – and lower maintenance costs – is a major bonus for people moving to a new home.
No chain
Moving somewhere new removes potential lengthy chains, which reduces the risk of losing your new home as a result of delays.
Modern design
At Cala, we ensure that our new properties are designed intelligently to maximize the space with modern design principles so your home feels current and sophisticated.
