Buying a new build and how it works? advice pls

hey

how does buying a new build home work from start to finish
what i have to do and what others do.

1,find a place

2,A agreement in principal (moratge)

3,make offer

4,place reservation

5,speak to a mortage Broker/s

6,instruct a solictor conveyancing

7,exchange contarcats as have heared new build companys want contracts exchanged within 28 days

8,accept mortage offer (offers last 3-6 moths ?) and hope theres no delay on finish date. have heard mortage lenders will extend the offer if there is delay on finish date

9,pay a deposit on home (5% etc) to builder through conveyancing solictor

10,conveyancing rest search for your mortage lender/offer

11,final payment
