Of those surveyed, 93% were satisfied with the overall quality of their home, with the same number also willing to recommend their builder to a friend, according to the research.
The study was carried out by the National House Building Council (NHBC) with the results for Scottish homeowners analysed for industry body Homes for Scotland.
Homes for Scotland Chief Executive Philip Hogg said: "Despite continuing economic challenges, the one certainty for those looking to move on to or up the housing ladder is that new build homes offer the widest range of choice and purchase solutions – something the secondhand market simply cannot match."

Mr Hogg added that new mortgage schemes and protection of the Consumer Code for Home Builders, provided new home buyers with confidence, something older homes couldn't offer in the same way.
Commenting on the results, Director of NHBC Scotland Malcolm MacLeod added: "These are very encouraging results, which underline the continued commitment of the Scottish house-building industry to producing high quality new homes and providing excellent service to consumers.
"Research has shown that occupiers have very positive views about new homes, compared to those consumers living in older stock. This is something the new homes industry can be truly proud of."
