Help to Buy opens doors in Pewsey
People looking for a new home in Pewsey are being offered a helping hand by new home specialist Redcliffe Homes thanks to the launch of the Government’s Help to Buy scheme.
Launched earlier in the year, the Help to Buy scheme was announced in this year’s budget and gives people on all stages of the property ladder the opportunity to purchase a new home with a deposit of just five per cent.
Available at Redcliffe’s Whatley Drive development in Pewsey this new Government scheme will lend up to 20 per cent of the value of the property through an equity loan.
The purchaser will have to place a five percent deposit and fund the remaining cost of the property with a mortgage giving them 100% ownership of their home.
For example when purchased under Help to Buy, one of the one-bedroom apartments at the development will cost £129,600 (a 20 per cent reduction off the £162,000 list price through the equity loan) with purchasers needing a deposit of £8,100.
Or for one of the three-bedroom houses under Help to Buy, the cost will now be £236,000 with a deposit of £14,750.
Not only that, anyone wanting to buy at this development will be interested to know that Redcliffe Homes is also offering with help towards the stamp duty costs or the flooring costs making that move even more of a reality.
Lorraine Kendrick, Marketing and Sales Manager at Redcliffe Homes said: “Help to Buy is a great opportunity for everyone looking to buy a new property.
“What’s so good about the scheme is that it is available for all purchasers, whether they are first time buyers, those looking to take the next steps on the property ladder or just wanting a change of scene.”
The Help to Buy scheme is available on properties up to the value of £600,000 and is a great opportunity for all types of house hunter wanting to own a new home at this fantastic new development.
Lorraine added: “There has been considerable interest in Whatley Drive from house hunters looking for a quality new apartment or house in the area and we are extremely pleased to be able to offer Help to Buy on the latest phase.
