Bellway Homes helps buyers Marche up the property ladder

The Marches

Bellway Homes is hosting an open weekend on 18 and 19 May at The Marches, Stepps, to highlight two great options that have helped hundreds buyers achieve their dream of owning a new home – Part Exchange and Mi New Home.

Under Part Exchange, a buyer can effectively swap their existing property for a new home. Bellway Homes ensures an independent evaluation is carried out on a client’s current property, guaranteeing a fair offer. The company also covers estate agent’s costs, including the Home Report and any associated marketing costs, providing buyers with substantial savings in the process.

MI New Home is a 95% mortgage scheme implemented by the house building industry and supported by the Scottish Government, as well as a number of lenders. This incentive aims to help both first time buyers and homeowners with a deposit between 5-10% secure a new home on properties up to the value of £250,000.

Fraser Conn, Sales and Marketing Director at Bellway Homes, says: “Since MI New Home launched towards the end of last year, effectively bringing 95% mortgages back to the market, many buyers who previously struggled with large deposit requirements are now finding there is a simple and effective solution.

“While we continue to see encouraging signs within the housing sector, particularly over the last three months, Part Exchange still has a role to play in helping to generate movement. These are two different but equally effective initiatives, which have helped countless house hunters become homeowners.”

Stepps is situated on the edge of Glasgow city centre and is twinned with Les Marches, hence The Marches’ fitting name. The development offers a superb choice of well-planned, three-bedroom semi-detached and detached properties, as well as spacious four and five-bedroom detached family homes.

In addition to the choice of incentives available, a visit to The Marches also gives prospective buyers a chance to pop into the Bannerman showhome and view the exquisite design layout, impressive specification and finish that comes with every home.

A choice of bespoke additional extras are available on several of the properties, allowing purchasers to personalise their own home from Bellway Homes’ exclusive collection, which comprises a range of marble tiles, high gloss fitted units and granite work surfaces.

Stepps provides an extensive choice of local services and amenities; from shops, restaurants and hotels to nurseries and primary schools. For secondary education there is the option to attend schools in nearby Chryston, Coatbridge, Cumbernauld or Lenzie.

Only a mile from The Marches is Hogganfield Park, with its woodland walks and loch. Just three miles from the development is Glasgow Fort, home to over 70 leading high street brands.

Nearby, links from the development to the M80 and M8 make Glasgow, Cumbernauld, Edinburgh and Stirling highly accessible. The Marches is also close to Stepps Railway Station, providing a regular service to Glasgow’s Queen Street Station.

Prices at The Marches are currently released from £169,995. For further information on the Part Exchange and MI New Home open weekend, visit bellway.co.uk.
