Buy a new home in Halifax with NewBuy

Owning a stylish new home in Halifax is now even easier thanks to 95% mortgages through the NewBuy initiative.

The valuable help is available on all new homes at Wheatley Chase, which features a good choice of two, three and four-bedroom homes from Redrow’s sought-after New Heritage Collection.

It means buyers should only need a relatively small deposit of around 5% of the purchase price to get on the housing ladder or move up to somewhere larger.

Patsy Aicken, sales director for Redrow Homes (Yorkshire), explains: “With a high specification as standard, no repairs or renovations needed and no waiting for the previous owner to move out, new build homes are generally streets ahead of what’s available on the second hand market. And with the offer of 95% mortgages through NewBuy, owning a stylish new home is now even easier.

“At a time when most lenders require deposits of around 20% of the purchase price, it’s the ideal solution for those who have sufficient income to make monthly mortgage payments on the amount they wish to borrow; they just don't have the cash available to put down a large sum up front.”

Prices at Wheatley Chase start from £93,999 for a two-bedroom apartment, and with NewBuy savings of around £4,700 could be enough to secure one of the stylish new homes.

Influenced by the architecture of the Arts and Crafts movement, the variety of homes look traditional from the outside with stone finishes in keeping with the local area.

Inside, they are full of features designed for ease of living.

Kitchens are well equipped with integrated appliances including oven, hob, microwave and fridge freezer so customers won’t have to worry about buying essential white goods. Plus with tall cabinets and extra wide drawers, there’s plenty of storage space and a handy utility room keeps the washer and dryer out of the kitchen.

Bathrooms and en-suites enjoy quality fixtures and fittings, with a tile range exclusive to Redrow.

With double glazing and central heating included as standard, the homes are easy to manage and efficient to run so home owners should save money on their fuel bills.
