First-time buyer deals with new homes in Aylesbury

Buckinghamshire property-seekers in search of their first home can take advantage of the popular FirstBuy scheme at Oasis, Taylor Wimpey’s sought-after development of property for sale in Aylesbury.

First-time buyers can find out how to secure a brand new property for 80% of its price – and a 5% deposit – during a special event being held at Taylor Wimpey’s Oasis development of new homes for sale in Aylesbury.

On Thursday 29th March between 5pm and 7pm, aspiring first-time buyers will be able to discuss with Taylor Wimpey experts and an independent financial advisor how the fantastic FirstBuy scheme could help them onto the Aylesbury property ladder much sooner than they may have expected.

Under FirstBuy, selected one-bedroom apartments for sale in Aylesbury at Oasis can be secured by qualifying first-time buyers for 80% of their full £115,000 price – that’s just £92,000, including a £5,750 deposit, subject to status.

What’s more, anyone reserving their new home at the Taylor Wimpey Aylesbury development on the day will receive a free plasma television and a year’s Sky subscription* when they move into their new property.

Steve Rolt, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “The FirstBuy event is an incredible opportunity to find out all about this amazing Government-backed scheme which is helping more and more first-time buyers purchase new properties to buy in Aylesbury.

“Only a strictly limited number of flats for sale in Aylesbury are available under FirstBuy – so anyone hoping to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to step on the property ladder should book an appointment for the event at Oasis on Thursday 29th March.”

The one-bedroom Aylesbury apartments available with FirstBuy at Oasis benefit from a contemporary design that makes them ideal for individuals or couples, featuring a spacious open-plan kitchen/dining/living room, a generously-sized bedroom and a bathroom, plus allocated parking outside.

FirstBuy works through a joint loan of 20% from the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) and Taylor Wimpey, which means that eligible purchasers only need put down a 5% deposit and obtain a 75% loan-to-value mortgage. The loan is repayable at the end of the 25-year mortgage term or when the property is sold. To be eligible, purchasers must be first-time buyers and their total household earnings should be less than £60,000.

Homeowners at Oasis enjoy the best of all worlds – beautiful rolling countryside on the doorstep, market town living and an easy commute to London.

Aylesbury is a bustling town with a host of shopping and leisure opportunities including the Friars Square indoor shopping centre, while the town’s market still meets on the cobbles of the old Market Square, and the ongoing Waterside project will create a new shopping centre including a Waitrose supermarket.

There is a good selection of schools for children of all ages in the town, including three grammar schools and a further education college.

The recent opening of the Aylesbury Vale Parkway rail station puts the development just one hour from Marylebone station, with trains running twice an hour at peak times, while commuters also enjoy excellent rail links to Oxford and Reading. Local bus routes provide connections to Gatwick, Heathrow and Luton airports, while the M40 is within 15 miles and the M25 just over 20 miles away.

The FirstBuy event is taking place from 5pm to 7pm on Thursday 29th March at the Oasis Sales Centre, located at 1 Prince Rupert Drive, Aylesbury, HP19 9RA. For more information, visit taylorwimpey.co.uk.
