Bryant gives Havant family a helping hand

After their flat had been on the market for several months Nicky and Gareth Morgan were beginning to despair of ever being able to buy a bigger home for them and their children Gemma, 9, and Caden, 2.

When the couple told Bryant Homes’ sales executives at Cedar Park of their predicament the team suggested using MyChoice HomeBuy, a government funded scheme which provides a low cost loan (APR 1.75% pa) to those with a joint household income of less than £60,000. Those using the scheme will own 100% of their home but pay only 50% of the price now using a low interest equity loan to fund the remaining 50% of the property.

Nicky said: “We had two children in a two bedroom flat and we really wanted more space but we couldn’t find a buyer. We’d put our flat on the market at just the wrong time and after months without any interest we felt like we were trapped. We are so glad Bryant Homes offered us the shared equity scheme at Cedar Park as we would never have been able to get a bigger home otherwise.”

The team at Cedar Park put the couple in touch with a financial advisor and after discussing their options they bought a three bedroom semi-detached home, using Bryant Homes’ part exchange scheme.

Nicky said: “Using the MyChoice HomeBuy scheme enabled us to overcome the hurdles of high mortgage costs as well as the need for a large deposit which, in the current economic climate, was a real struggle. We are so glad the sales team suggested using it as we love our new home.”

Pauline Fletcher, regional sales and marketing director for Bryant Homes, added: “We speak to many people, like Nicky and Gareth Morgan, who are desperate to move home but don’t think this will be possible in the current economic climate. Whatever hurdle you’re facing when it comes to moving we could have a solution for you so why not come and see us?
