Exciting new incentives when you buy an older home

Barratt is now offering part exchange and many new incentives on the older properties sold through Barratt OakLeaf Homes. "Many buyers are not aware that we sell older homes as well as brand new ones," reports Barratt's part exchange manager Barbara Young, who is based at the developer's Cardiff head office.

"These properties have been acquired through our famous home exchange service and now they are being offered for sale through OakLeaf Homes with an exciting range of added benefits.

"We can also offer tailor-made packages to suit individual needs, including 5 per cent deposit paid or help with legal fees for a first-time buyer."

Many OakLeaf Homes come complete with extras included in the price. Some are fully re-decorated and many have fitted carpets and kitchen appliances.

"The success of our home exchange service means that we buy in lots of older homes every year," Barbara added. "They are competitively priced and there is no risk because we conduct a full survey on each property."

Current prices for older homes range from £69,950 to £249,500, and there is a wide selection of two, three and four-bedroom houses to choose from. Some are available at greatly reduced prices to buyers who are able to move quickly.

"All of these properties represent stunning value for money," Barbara continued. "We believe they offer some of the best bargains available anywhere and, because they are backed by Barratt, you can buy with confidence."
