Why rent when you can get Help to Buy at Buckingham Square

Aspiring homeowners who fear they may be stuck in a rental rut have a superb chance to step on the property ladder for less at Taylor Wimpey’s Buckingham Square development in Aylesbury.

The Government’s Help to Buy scheme offers would-be buyers in a range of circumstances an unmissable opportunity to become the proud owner of a stylish two-bedroom apartment, priced from £120,000, for just 80% of its full price!

This sensational scheme means customers can leave renting behind with just a 5% deposit and a 75% loan-to-value mortgage, which gives them access to a much wider choice of deals from lenders offering monthly repayments that compare favourably to lining a landlord’s pockets.

Steve Rolt, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Many in the industry are predicting that rents will continue to increase, putting even more of a squeeze on the finances of prospective purchasers, while low interest rates are making life easier for existing homeowners.

“And with Help to Buy making it even more affordable for would-be buyers to own a stunning two-bedroom apartment at Buckingham Square, the question really is why rent when you can buy?”

Under Help to Buy, a Government loan of up to 20% is available to help purchasers secure a new-build property up to the value of £600,000. There is no salary cap for customers taking advantage of the scheme and it is available to both first-time buyers and those looking to move on from an existing property.

There’s a superb selection of two-bedroom apartments currently available at Buckingham Square from as little as £120,000, with each plot featuring a spacious open-plan kitchen/living/dining room benefiting from an attractive Juliet balcony, well-proportioned bedrooms, a main bathroom and allocated parking located outside. Each apartment includes flooring throughout and integrated appliances.

Homeowners at Buckingham Square 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.
