Strong sales for Barratt in Lincolnshire

Barratt in Lincolnshire has reported a strong sales performance in the first three months of the year, adding to hopes that the worst of the economic news may have passed.

Barratt North Midlands has already sold 149 new homes in 2009. The company says its sales success is down to great locations and products, competitive prices and deals to suit all kinds of buyers.

All but three homes have now been sold at Riverside Walk.

The news comes on top of a number of indicators over the Easter period that the wider economy may have turned a corner.

Bank of England figures showed that mortgage lending had increased by 19 per cent month on month. And the Nationwide Building Society released figures showing that house prices had actually risen – for the first time in 16 months.

“We have seen a strong performance in terms of the number of homes sold and visitors to our sites in the last few months as more and more people realise that now could be the time to buy,” said James Poynor, Sales Director at Barratt North Midlands.

“We have a number of ways to help our customers move up the property ladder.”

“If you’re a First Time Buyer you could move in for just 70 per cent of the price under the HomeBuy Direct scheme, which we operate in conjunction with the Government’s Homes and Communities Agency.”

“And homeowners who want to move to a bigger property can take advantage of our part-exchange service, so they don’t have to worry about finding a buyer for their old place.”

“We are offering some of our best ever deals but they can only be available for a limited period and we are fast running out of stock. I’d advise anyone who’s interested in a great new home to come and talk to us soon.”
