With the company's newly tailored purchase plan, buyers can secure a guaranteed sale for their existing home in just five days.

Commenting on the new approach, John Slater, group managing director – Stewart Milne Homes, says: "Even though the market is gaining momentum, we recognise that the speed of securing a sale for an existing property is still cause for concern and hinders many people's moving plans.
