Ever wanted to build your own home but don't know where to start? New government legislation hopes to make the dream of building your own home a reality for many many more people.
The 'Right to Build' legislation requires councils to keep records of those seeking to build in their area, and to grant sufficient planning permissions to meet that demand.
The new 'Help to Build' fund will now also help provide the finance to secure the building plot and secure a regular mortgage - making self-build a real prospect for all those looking for a new home.
So whether you're looking for your perfect building plot now or will be in the future, take the first step and sign up to the local self-build register. Its quick and free - simply send an email with your details to Wiltshire Council:
