New homes for under £130,000 in Milton Keynes Buying a home, with all of the associated legal and financial arrangements, can seem like a daunting experience to those preparing to step onto the property ladder for the first time.

Bellway is lending a helping hand to first-time buyers in Fenny Stratford development by introducing a ‘Reserve For £99’ offer on selected apartments at Aqua on Watling Street.

It might seem too good to be true, but it really is possible. Housebuilder Bellway has introduced a ‘Reserve For £99’* offer on all 1 and 2 bedroom apartments at its highly desirable waterside development, Aqua in Fenny Stratford in Milton Keynes.

Chris Edginton, Sales Director of Bellway Northern Home Counties, said: “Using the offer purchasers only have to pay £99 to reserve their apartment. We will then pay the 5% deposit, 1% stamp duty and legal fees up to £1000.

“The offer is perfect for first time buyers, who even though they’re in full-time employment, find it impossible to save for a deposit and have to live in rented accommodation, or at home with their parents. Money that would otherwise be lost in rent can be invested in a home of their own.”

For example, on a 1-bedroom apartment with allocated car parking space priced at £136,000 Bellway would pay a 5% deposit of £6,800, 1% Stamp Duty of £1,360 and legal fees up to £1000 – saving purchasers £9,160. Purchasers must use Bellway financial services and a nominated solicitor. Two bedroom apartments are available from £162,000, with savings of £10,720

Situated on Watling Street, Aqua is a development of one- and two- bedroom apartments situated on the south side of Milton Keynes in the area of Fenny Stratford. As the name suggests, the development is adjacent to the Grand Union Canal and bordered on the other side by the River Ouzel with water meadows beyond.
