Living mortgage free for a year thanks to Persimmon

Imagine how good it would feel if, for the next year, you didn’t have to worry about your mortgage repayments. If you assume this seems just too good to be true, think again, as Persimmon Homes is offering buyers at its Lockerbie development the opportunity to receive just that.

For a strictly limited time, selected properties at Persimmon’s Mains Meadow in Lockerbie are available with the offer of a 12 month mortgage free living, and with homes that boast competitive price tags, the enticing incentive is sure to tempt househunters from first time buyers, growing families, investors and those in rental accommodation to make the move to one of Persimmon’s most southerly sites.

Ingrid Gahagan, sales director for Persimmon Homes West Scotland said the mortgage free year incentive has been introduced to ensure more purchasers are able to afford the home of their dreams. She comments: “We are trialling this initiative at our Lockerbie site and if successful, we’ll roll it out to other development around the region.

“Not having to worry about the mortgage will relieve the stresses of having to make monthly repayments and will allow buyers to fully enjoy living in their new home, with a little left over to spend elsewhere. They could really make the most of the extra income by splashing out on a holiday, furniture or a new car without worrying about financially overstretching themselves.”

Ingrid explains the initiative: “For purchasers reserving a home now, we’re offering to pay 12 monthly mortgage payments*. If you’re interested and want to know more, please do come and speak to our expert sales advisers on site and they’ll assist you with finding your dream home at a price you can afford.”

Whether you’re a first time buyer, have a growing family, or simply looking to invest, Scotland’s leading homebuilder has something to suit every househunter and their lifestyles.

Ingrid concludes: “We’re here to help anyone in the market for a new home make the move with the minimum of hassle and expense which is why if buyers also find they need extra assistance in meeting some of the cost of their deposit, stamp duty, legal fees or even help with selling their existing home, we can offer some assistance.”

The development, consists of just 42 two, three and four bedroom homes. Mains Meadow is being built in a cul-de-sac design, making it a tranquil haven to escape the stresses of daily life. It’s also ideal for families as children can play outside without the worry of traffic and it will also incorporate an area of open space and a play area.

The attractive market town of Lockerbie is a convenient location for commuters as it is situated near to the M74 and has excellent rail links, meaning that the cosmopolitan cities of Glasgow, Edinburgh and Carlisle are within easy reach.

The town itself has a wide variety of amenities, local schools and high street shops to choose from and there are several leisure activities surrounding Lockerbie, including golf and sailing as well as plenty of opportunities for budding walkers and cyclists.
