Start the New Year with the home of your dreams

With only a 70 per cent mortgage needed, a new dream home could be closer to achieving than you think - and perfect way to start the New Year.

Stamford Homes is currently offering the Government’s HomeBuy Direct shared equity scheme at its developments in and around Grimsby and other parts of North East Lincolnshire.

The innovative scheme – which has now been extended until September 2010 - offers eligible customers the chance to own 100 per cent of their home for 70 per cent of the price.

In simple terms, the Government and Stamford Homes will each provide up to 15 per cent of the shared equity, with the balance being mortgageable through many major lenders.

Stamford Homes sales director Steve Woomble, said: “It’s fantastic that we are able to provide this scheme on a selection of our two, three and four-bedroom homes across many of our developments.

“We have already seen a number of reservations through the HomeBuy Direct scheme, which gives first time buyers, key workers or people needing to upsize the opportunity select the home of their dreams at a price they can afford.”

Selected homes across developments in Louth, Grimsby, Market Rasen and Burgh Le Marsh are currently eligible for the scheme – some of which are due to imminent completion and other due for completion in the spring.
