Boost onto the property ladder with FirstBuy at Hollybrook Lodge

First time buyers in Southampton will now find it even easier to step onto the property ladder – thanks to FirstBuy at Hollybrook Lodge.

The Barratt development features an exciting range of one and two bedroom apartments in an excellent location, close to the city’s many amenities. And now the dream of buying a home Hollybrook Lodge – rather than renting one elsewhere – can become a reality.

“This is a hugely popular development because of its convenient location and the selection of homes on offer here,” said Barratt sales director, Sarah Eales.

“We are keen to make the buying process as easy as possible for anyone wanting to move to a new apartment at Hollybrook Lodge. And that is why we are offering them the chance to use FirstBuy.”

Under FirstBuy, buyers are offered a loan of up to 20 per cent of the price of the property, jointly funded by Barratt and the Government’s Homes and Communities Agency.

They then only have to find the remaining 80 per cent of the price themselves – with a mortgage and deposit.

“This means a one bedroom apartment, priced from £118,000, can be owned for £94,400 with a deposit of just £4,720,” added Sarah.

Two bedroom apartments are also available at Hollybrook Lodge and are priced from £153,000 – or £122,400.

Hollybrook Lodge is just a short journey from city centre shops, restaurants and entertainment venues – including Ikea, West Quay, the Mayflower Theatre and Leisure World. There is also easy access to the M27 and M3 motorways – with links to Portsmouth, Bournemouth and London.
