Extra help for Bingley’s first time buyers

First time buyers in and around the Bingley area will be thrown a lifeline this weekend (22/23rd March) when an award winning house builder hosts an event in their honour.

Redrow Homes will be show-casing the competitively priced two-bedroom apartments and homes at its impressive Oak Glen development, in Gilstead, during a special first time buyer weekend.

A financial adviser will be on hand to offer free, impartial advice and, making sure buyers are given the most possible help when making the jump, Redrow will offer to pay 5% deposit, £500 towards mortgage repayments for two years and £500 towards legal fees on selected plots.

Giselle Ledgard, area sales manager for Redrow Homes (Yorkshire) says: “The latest statistics show that the number of first time buyers entering the property market it at its lowest since 1980. Our event at Oak Glen will be an ideal opportunity for buyers to see the homes that are in their price range, and to talk to a financial adviser and our own sales consultants about how we can help them with the process of finding a property that they can truly call home.”

The various incentives available form part of ‘re:assure’ a package of help, advice and special offers all designed to make owning a new home as easy as possible from the moment of first enquiry right through until after the customer has moved in. For those who reserve before March 30th, there’s even the option for Redrow to protect the future value of their new home for up to three years.*

Perfect for first time buyers, the two-bedroom Canterbury, priced from £164,999, features an open plan living/dinning room and plenty of storage space. Alternatively there are two-bedroom Avon apartments, starting from £129,999, which feature an open-plan kitchen and living area and come complete with a single parking space.

Although ideal for first time buyers, Oak Glen also has homes suitable for people on every stage of the property ladder, including families and empty nesters.

The property mix at Oak Glen includes the three-bedroom Kennett, currently priced from £249,999 and the four-bedroom detached Roadford, starting at £329,999. The impressive four-bedroom Weaver features two en-suites, a separate dinning room, a double detached garage and is available to buy for £449,995

Oak Glen itself is in a great location, with Bradford city centre just a short drive away, as well as having good access to the M62 and being less than 20 miles from Leeds.
