Midlands house hunters take a trip ‘Down Under’

First time buyers across the Midlands made a beeline for Taylor Wimpey’s developments at the weekend, keen to have some Aussie fun after the house builder brought a flavour of Down Under to its ‘I’m A Renter, Get Me Out Of Here!’ events.

Inspired by one of the nations’ favourite TV programmes, ‘I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here!’, the event, which was held a number of developments including Wharf Central in Solihull, Henley Grange in Halesowen and The Hedgerows in Dudley, was designed to help first time buyers get to grips with the (bush tucker) trials and tribulations that making the jump onto the property ladder can bring.

Anne Wallace, regional sales and marketing director for Taylor Wimpey Midlands, said: “We were delighted with the response we had to our ‘I’m A Renter’ events. Buying your first home can be a stressful time which is why we wanted to inject an element of fun into it.

“Whilst it may feel like your destined to spend endless days enduring your parents nagging or fighting over the bathroom with housemates you don’t get on with, there really are options available to you. If you’re keen to find out more then get in touch, you could be making your escape from rental hell into home ownership heaven sooner than you think!”

House hunters visiting the developments got the chance to find out about the range of suitable new homes on offer and Taylor Wimpey’s latest initiative designed to make buying a new home more affordable.

This new initiative comes in the form of a subsidised mortgage which sees Taylor Wimpey credit the difference between a maximum representative mortgage rate of 5.99% and the offer rate of 2.99%. The difference is paid into the purchaser’s bank account following legal completion. Terms and conditions apply. Customers advised to seek independent advice before taking out any mortgage.

Taylor Wimpey Midlands currently has a range of modern new apartments and houses that would be ideal for first time buyers, with prices starting from as little as £79,995.
