Meet the team
After five years working for Barratt Homes, I recently moved to David Wilson - Elba Park. I love the modern design of the homes here and the friendly environment of the development.
Elba Park is situated on the site of the former Lambton coke works, which has been regenerated into a 52-hectare country park. With 77,000 new trees and 3,700 metres of new paths and cycle tracks, this fantastic feature is a stunning benefit to the new community. Close to the A1, commuting and socialising in the vibrant local area could not be easier.
Elba Park is in a convenient location for access to Sunderland, Durham and Newcastle.
Sunderland is about six miles from the development.

Our team can introduce you to independent professional advisers who will offer expert advice specific to your needs. They’ll help find the best buy-to-let investment mortgages, as well as offering guidance on tax and portfolio planning. Most can also meet you at a time and place that’s convenient for you.
The right agent can make investing much easier. We have strong relationships with reliable local letting agents who will help you achieve the best rental rates for your property. We can also help negotiate management fees and commission rates so you get the best deal.
If you need it, we can provide you with a list of fully independent solicitors. Offering fast, effective service at competitive rates, the firms we recommend have handled thousands of transactions for Barratt and are familiar with the entire process – meaning less hassle for you.
So your investment property is ready as soon as possible, we offer a range of furniture packs, created to suit homes of all sizes. We work with top interior designers, and because of our considerable purchasing power, we can pass on some great savings. You just select what you want, then relax - leaving the installation to our experienced professionals.
Our homes appeal to potential tenants, not just because they look great, but also because we design them to be energy efficient and low maintenance to live in. Our homes have won some of the industry’s most coveted awards for design and quality, and we’re the only major national housebuilder ever to be awarded a 5 Star Housebuilder Award by the Homebuilders Federation.
Decades of UK building experience means we really understand the market – creating homes people desire, in places they want to live. Our properties offer great local amenities and facilities, and are close to major transport links. People like living in Barratt homes – which makes them great investments.

Buying a home follows a set process. Here’s a quick overview, but don’t worry if it seems complicated – our team will be happy to answer any questions you have.
View our detailed guide for more information on the process
You’ll need a solicitor that specialises in conveyance to look after all the paperwork. We can put you in touch with one if needs be.
There are plenty of options to consider when it comes to a mortgage. Once you’ve done your research (or spoken to a mortgage adviser – again, we can put you in touch if you like), you should seek an agreement in principle.
Your mortgage lender will want confirmation the home is worth what you’re paying for it. They’ll organise the valuation for you – this will involve a fee.
You solicitor will look after this for you. It’s all about formally transferring ownership from us to you, and checking there are no legal obstacles in the way.
Once the legal work is complete, your solicitor will exchange contracts with us. This is when you pay your deposit and commit to the deal taking place.
On the date of completion, you become the legal owner of your new home. Collect the keys and make yourself comfy!
