Superb offering for young buyers at Citigait

Barratt's new Portsmouth development Citigait, is providing young buyers in the area with excellent choices for getting on the first rung of the property ladder.

Citigait has a selection of citipads and one bedroom apartments to suit young professionals, with superb living space and the opportunity to become a home owner.

The citipads and one bedroom apartments provide a contemporary living feel with excellent use of space. All homes are provided with an open plan living area, modern fitted kitchen and double bedroom - perfect for singles or first time buyer couples.

Prices for the citipads and one bedroom apartments start from just £108,795 for first time buyers under Barratt's ‘Head Start' scheme or with five per cent deposit and legal fees paid - a real bonus for those struggling to pay rent and save towards a new home.

The ‘Head Start' scheme only requires buyers to secure a mortgage for 85 per cent of the total property price and Barratt finances the remaining 15 per cent for up to 10 years. So for a citipad priced at £127,995, ‘Head Start' allows a first time buyer to purchase at £108,795.

"With Head Start, buyers still own 100 per cent of the home, it's an excellent scheme to make these fantastic homes affordable," said Mark Docherty, Barratt sales director.

Citigait is located close to the main shopping centre in Commercial Road and is just a short walk from Portsmouth Harbour Station, which offers a regular train service to London Waterloo.
