Their new house is beautiful.

They're, there, and their all have the same pronunciation, but are used differently.

  • They're is the contracted form of they are.
  • There is used to indicate a location.
  • Their is used to indicate possession.

Since the new house belongs to them, it is in their possession, we must use their.
