Get on the move for under £95K in Bathgate

Stylish apartments at Taylor Wimpey's Wester Grove development in Bathgate make moving easy.

If you’re fed up of renting and looking for a home of your own, why not visit Taylor Wimpey’s Wester Grove development within Wester Inch Village in Bathgate, where you can buy your own two bedroom apartment for just 85% of the purchase price through the company’s Shared Equity scheme.

This incentive is available on selected plots for just a limited period only.

The initiative, which is currently available on the range of two bedroom apartments, offers first time buyers the chance to snap up a two bedroom Lynmouth apartment for just £93,500* using the shared equity scheme – a saving of £16,495.

Homeowners have the reassurance that they own 100% of their property from day one but as they’ll already have paid a 5% deposit, they only need to find a mortgage on 80% of the value. The other 15% is provided rent and interest free by Taylor Wimpey for up to ten years, at which point purchasers repay 15% of their home’s current market value. The scheme is flexible, allowing purchasers to repay the outstanding amount early or even make smaller one-off payments up to three times during the ten year period.

Susan McDonald, sales manager for Taylor Wimpey West Scotland, comments: “We recognise that buying a home can be a financially daunting prospect for many and we want to ensure that first time buyers know all the facts before they make a decision. We’ve already helped hundreds of people to get on to the property ladder, and the availability of this scheme at Wester Grove in the Wester Inch area of Bathgate, offers a great chance for first-time buyers to get on the move.

“There’s no need to continue paying someone else’s mortgage or living with your parents when you could snap up a brand new home of your own for less using our Shared Equity scheme. This fantastic initiative offers a genuine step up for those wanting to get onto the property ladder.”

For more information visit the showhomes at Wester Grove which are open Thursday to Monday from 11.00am until 5.30pm.
