Get more for your money with Persimmon

Whilst recent reports about lending and the availability of credit may have unnerved some people, it seems house hunters in Stafford are as keen as ever. Many buyers at The Crossings in Stafford have been able to buy as a result of Persimmon's Helping Hand shared equity scheme. Until recently, this incentive was only available on apartments, however due to demand, the company is now offering selected houses with Helping Hand.

With the Helping Hand shared equity scheme, purchasers paying for a percentage of the property yet they own it entirely. On apartments, buyers pay 75 per cent of the value of the property and on traditional homes it's an 85 per cent payment with the remaining percentage deferred for up to ten years.

Ideal for those on lower incomes and for the growing number of people wanting to buy on their own, Persimmon's Helping Hand scheme 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, with no fees or monthly rental to pay on the remaining percentage*.

With the Helping Hand offer, apartments at The Crossings are currently priced from £101,246 and homes from £144,495.

The Crossings is situated close to the historic town of Stafford and superbly located near to the M6, offering great travel links to larger towns and cities such as Birmingham, Cannock and Crewe. Stafford bustles with activity and each month a farmers market is held, making it a very friendly place to shop and the area is also renowned for its pottery with Spode, Wedgwood and Royal Doulton bringing prosperity and fame to the area.
