Free advice for first time buyers in Street

Buying your first home can be a daunting task so this weekend (15 and 16 January) first time buyers are being invited to a special event at ICON, Crest Nicholson’s stylish eco-development in Street, to find out how easy and affordable it is to get their foot onto the property ladder.

The event will see Crest Nicholson’s award winning sales team join forces with financial advisers and Webster’s estates agents to offer expert advice and support to first time buyers, helping them to secure their dream home. The team will guide visitors through the maze of mortgages and legal costs, showing them why it is a good time to buy in the current market, the great range of homes on offer at ICON and how affordable a new home really could be.

First time buyers will also learn how to take advantage of the many financial schemes and incentives available to them, such as Crest Nicholson’s popular EasyBuy scheme.

With EasyBuy, purchasers at the scheme have an opportunity to own 100 per cent of their new home at 85 per cent of the price, paying no rent or interest on the outstanding 15 per cent for the first five years. The EasyBuy scheme means that homebuyers looking to buy in Street can secure a stylish one bedroom Nouveau eco-apartment for as little as £90,908, which offers a modern and bright living space complimented by a balcony off the living room, giving homeowners a flexible outdoor space.

Other bargains on offer include the two-bedroom Harrison, which costs just £144,458 under EasyBuy and includes a stylish outdoor private decking area above the garage, which can be accessed through both bedrooms.

Laura Osborne, Sales Manager for Crest Nicholson, said: “Buying your first home can be a daunting prospect, so this weekend offers an excellent opportunity for first time buyers to come and find out more about how they do it and how much they could afford. Visitors to the development will have the chance to look around the show home and experience the space and excellent finish offered by a Crest Nicholson home, as well as finding out how to make their ambitions of home ownership a reality by speaking to the sales staff, a financial advisor and an estate agent.”
