Ekco Park offers an express move
According to the latest City Rate of Sale report from Post Office Money, the average UK property takes 96 days to sell. For instance, Southend in Essex has seen a rise of 12%, one of the sharpest increases in selling times in the UK. To help speed up the process and take away the stress of buying a new home, Bellway Homes’ Express Mover scheme is currently available on many of their developments in Essex. At Ekco Park in Southend, Bellway is offering Express Mover and Help to Buy for some housetypes. With a variety of home styles on offer, these will appeal to a wide audience, including commuters, families and first-time buyers.
Set in a traditional seaside town, the development comprises two, three and four-bedroom homes. With prices starting at just £279,995, a selection of these houses come in under the new Stamp Duty threshold for first-time buyers, so homes at Ekco Park are particularly attractive to these property purchasers, as well as those with a home to sell.
Annette Hurst, Sales and Marketing Director at Bellway Essex comments: “We appreciate the stress that comes with buying and selling a house, and how time-consuming the process can be. With our Express Mover Scheme, we work with a team of recommended local agents to ensure a buyer is found as quickly as possible, so busy home buyers can focus on finding their ideal property. Southend offers the calming ambience of the coast, with an effortless commute into London for those who enjoy the hustle and bustle of city life. We urge potential buyers to visit the development for themselves to see all that Southend-On-Sea has to offer and take advantage of our special deals.”
