Taking the first step at Wellington Court

Leicestershire first time buyers who assumed they had been priced out of the housing market can now find a helping hand towards taking that first step at David Wilson East Midlands’ Wellington Court development in Ibstock with the housebuilder’s Head Start scheme.

Situated on Leicester Road, Wellington Court is an exclusive development comprising just 22 one-, two- and three- bedroom homes. With prices starting from just £99,995, the smaller properties are ideal starter homes and with David Wilson’s Head Start scheme, home ownership can become a reality for less than you think.

Head Start is a shared equity scheme which allows buyers to initially purchase a home for just 85 per cent of the price. The remaining 15 per cent is funded by David Wilson through a deferred loan which is payable either in 10 years or when the property sells.

This deal is designed exclusively for fist time buyers and aims to make the buying process more affordable, which will come as a welcome aid particularly during the current challenging economy.

Philip Lacey, Sales Director for David Wilson comments “As a company, we have always supported first time buyers and I hope this scheme will help more potential home owners get a foot on the ladder.

“Buying a home is one of the biggest purchases you are likely to make in a lifetime, which can obviously be quite daunting especially if it’s your first time, but with if you take advantage of Head Start, you can make the move into home ownership without overstretching your budget.

“A lot of first time buyers assume that new builds are out of their price range when quite often that is not the case. If buyers take advantage of Head Start they could find themselves living in one of our fantastic new homes for just £84,996- an unbelievable price for a first home.

“Wellington Court is a charming development which is ideal for first time buyers so if you’re considering biting the bullet and taking that first step, why not take it at Wellington Court?”

Wellington Court offers a selection of one-, two- and three- bedroom homes in a pleasant village within the picturesque Leicestershire countryside.

The development benefits from a wide range of local amenities including village shops, restaurants and public houses.

Prices at the development start from £99,995, £84,996 with Head Start.
