First time buyer event coming to Newcastle Under Lyme

Taking the first step on the property ladder can be a confusing, daunting experience which is why the team at Persimmon Homes' Lyme Valley development in Newcastle under Lyme are hosting a dedicated first time buyer open weekend during 19th and 20th April. Taking place between 10.30am to 5.30pm, Persimmon's experienced sales advisers at Lyme Valley will be available to answer any questions budding first time buyers may have and independent Financial Advisers will also be on hand to offer expert advice.

Recognising that there are financial pressures that go hand in hand with buying property, visitors will also learn all there is to know about Persimmon's ‘Helping Hand' shared equity scheme which enables youngsters to own an entire property for just 75 per cent of the price.

Ideal for those on lower incomes and for the growing number of people wanting to buy on their own, shared equity is an ideal option for many buyers as it means they are able to buy a home without having the cost of the whole mortgage - in this case, 100 per cent of the property for 75 per cent of the price, with no rent to pay on the remaining 25 per cent*.

Sandy Healy, Persimmon's field sales manager, comments: "Anyone that has never bought before may be unfamiliar with the jargon that's associated with buying property and may feel the whole process is something of a minefield. With our help however, we can prove that it's not as complicated as first imagined.

"Those who are looking to take their first exciting step on the property ladder should definitely pay a visit to the event at Lyme Valley and have a chat with our experts."

Persimmon's Lyme Valley development is ideally placed within just five minutes walk into the lively and historic town centre of Newcastle under Lyme. The area boasts excellent schools catering for all age ranges and the town centre is bustling with markets and shops. Perfect for commuters, the development is just a short drive to the M6 motorway.
