Buyers told to ‘get moving' in Petersfield

Chilgrove is a collection of two- and three-bedroom luxury apartments and four- and five-bedroom traditionally styled houses and forms the penultimate part of Kebbell Homes' highly regarded Herne Farm project. The homes at Herne Farm have been developed by Kebbell over a period of three decades, creating a community that has been able to establish itself naturally over time and which benefits from varying architectural designs.
There are currently three apartments and two houses remaining for sale and there are special incentives available to enable prospective purchasers to make ones of these exceptional homes their own. Gin Roaf, Sales and Marketing Director at Kebbell Homes said, "This ‘Get Moving' campaign has been designed to provide a practical and reassuring solution for homebuyers, especially during this period of uncertainty."
The offers are:
3% Mortgage Subsidy
Buyers who take advantage of this option will receive a cheque every month for 24 months, following financial completion, for a sum which represents the difference in the interest between 3% and the rate the buyer is paying on the mortgage for their new home, giving them the peace of mind and a helping hand for the first two years of ownership.
Part-Exchange Scheme
Part-exchange takes away the stress of finding a buyer for a purchaser's existing property and provides a fair and hassle-free solution to moving home. Kebbell Homes obtains an independent valuation on the property and subject to this figure not exceeding 75% of the price of the new Kebbell home Kebbell normally makes an offer equal to the valuation less 5%. As part of the Get Moving campaign, Kebbell will make an offer of 100% of the value so there is literally nothing to lose. Once terms have been agreed the sale is guaranteed, so there is no chain to worry about and the exchange usually takes place within six weeks. Gin said, "Of all the schemes to provide assistance to our purchasers the part-exchange has, over the years, consistently proved to be the favourite."
80/20 Assisted Purchase Plan
The Assisted purchase plans allows people to buy 100% of the property for just 80% of the price. The remaining 20% is deferred and repaid when the property is sold again in due course. Gin said, "This wonderful scheme enables you to live in style in a brand new Kebbell Home of your choice and it may even mean that there is the opportunity to furnish your home to a standard never before imagined."
Two Year Price Protection Guarantee
This option may be the preferred choice for buyers wanting peace of mind that the value of the property is secure. If a purchaser wishes to sell his/her property within the first two years of ownership and if after at least four months exposure on the open market, it fails to achieve at least the net price paid on purchase, Kebbell Homes will make up the difference. Gin explained, "We always endeavour to develop high quality new homes which mature over the years and enhance in value. Therefore with our Price Protection Guarantee, homebuyers can have confidence in their investment and know for sure that the value of their property is secure."
Chilgrove is situated in the beautiful market town of Petersfield, which is surrounded by the picturesque Hampshire countryside at the foot of the South Downs - an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The town centre, which is just a short walk from the development, contains many excellent shops, bars and restaurants along with a heath and lake, ideal for a relaxing day of fishing or afternoon strolls.
Chilgrove is a small development of just 14 properties. All residents at Herne Farm have access to a nearby, private sports and leisure centre which includes facilities such as heated swimming pool and squash courts.
