Opportunities for first time buyers in Oldbury
Aspiring homeowners struggling to get a foothold on the property ladder are being offered a fantastic opportunity to purchase brand new flats for sale in Oldbury – for just 85% of the price at Taylor Wimpey’s Latimer Square.
The leading housebuilder’s amazing Easy Start initiative means first-time buyers in search of new apartments in Oldbury can own selected two-bedroom homes, priced from £89,995 at this sought-after development, for only £76,495*.
Qualifying purchasers need only to find a 5% deposit – as little as £4,500 – and Taylor Wimpey will help arrange a mortgage covering 80% of the price of selected new homes for sale in Oldbury.
The remaining 15% is provided by the housebuilder in the form of an interest-free loan which can be repaid in up to three instalments over a 10-year period.
Daniel McGowan, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Our incredible Easy Start scheme at Latimer Square can make home ownership a reality for buyers in search of new flats in Oldbury, new homes in West Bromwich or flats in Dudley, who would otherwise struggle to raise enough money for a significant deposit.
“This simple and effective scheme always attracts a great deal of interest from would-be homeowners, and with only a limited number of plots available with Easy Start, qualifying purchasers will need to be quick to take advantage.”
Easy Start shared equity is available with selected two-bedroom ‘Jackson’ apartments, priced from just £76,495 under the scheme, and ‘Dallas’ two-bedroom apartments, priced from only £84,995 under the initiative.
The ‘Dallas’ and ‘Jackson’ apartments each benefit from a light and airy lounge/dining room with open-plan kitchen and French doors to an attractive Juliet balcony, plus two well-proportioned bedrooms and a bathroom off the private entrance hallway.
‘Dallas’ apartments also boast en-suite facilities to the master bedrooms, while each home comes with allocated parking outside and is completed to a high standard specification, including central heating, double glazing and fitted kitchen with contemporary units and integrated oven, hob and hood.
Oldbury town centre, which is less than a mile from Latimer Square, blends traditional architecture with modern design.
The central square, and the waterways which arrived with the Industrial Revolution, add a vibrancy and style to this Black Country town. The canals are now used for pleasure boats and fishing, while a superb range of shops and restaurants occupy many of the striking, red-brick buildings.
The area is also home to a choice of schools for children of all ages, and for commuters, the M5 is a few minutes’ drive from the development and Langley Green railway station is less than two miles away.
To find out more about Easy Start at Latimer Square, visit the Sales Centre, open Thursday to Monday, 11am to 5pm, and located off Summerton Road, Oldbury.
