Barratt helps FTB onto the property ladder

Technical manager at QEII Performing Arts Centre Daniel Dar-Nell, has been delighted with the help he received from Barratt West London, which enabled him to get a foot on the property ladder. Daniel had been renting a period, three bedroom detached house in Kingston, but wanted to own a new modern home of his own; somewhere he could put his individual mark on.

His parents were prepared to help with the deposit, but he believed he still needed help to raise more money and found he was not eligible for schemes such as the Government’s First Time Buyers’ Initiative.

The solution was found when he visited Reflexion, Barratt’s landmark development in Hounslow town centre which is phase one of the planned town centre regeneration. The modern design and location attracted him to the complex and he decided to view the show home. It was much more modern and better equipped than his rented home, suited his lifestyle and he decided it was for him. Barratt offered him the help he needed to buy a one-bedroom apartment and he completed 14 days later.

Now, having been in his new home just over a month Daniel is delighted: “The apartment is fantastic value for money, very spacious and I could not have bought it without Barratt’s help. The sales staff were exceptionally good and I’d recommend a Barratt home to anyone. I’m within easy reach of my job in Kingston and also near a lot of my friends, who live in West London. So my social life is fantastic!”

Reflexion, the private residential element of the regeneration, has proved to be one of Barratt’s most popular developments in West London. When completed, the development will contain over 334 private apartments, each offering a well-designed internal space and stylish, contemporary fixtures and fittings. Spacious and airy, all apartments will also have their very own balcony or terrace.

Located on the Piccadilly line at Hounslow Central, it is convenient for Heathrow airport, making these apartments ideal for commuters as well as home buyers looking for somewhere to ‘lock up and leave’ while they spend time abroad.

One, two and three-bedroom apartments at Reflexion are currently priced from £225,000. For more information visit the website: Barratthomes.co.uk
