Help for homebuyers in Telford

First time buyers in Telford should act fast if they want to take advantage of valuable help from Crest Nicholson.

Purchasers have the chance to snap up a home at Lightmoor Green at an affordable price, thanks to Crest’s EasyBuy scheme. Offering customers the chance to own a new home for just 85% of the price it’s been a welcome boost to those starting out in life.

“Saving a large cash deposit to buy your first home can be a struggle, but with EasyBuy you should only need a 5% deposit and a 80% mortgage. The remaining 15% is covered by an equity loan that’s interest free for the first five years,” Amanda Benjamin, sales manager for Crest Nicholson explained.

“It’s a great way to support those who would otherwise be priced out of the housing market and has proved to be a tremendous success at Lightmoor Green. EasyBuy is now only available on a limited number of properties so anyone who wants to take advantage of the scheme should act fast to avoid disappointment.”

The EasyBuy loan must be repaid within 10 years or when the customer sells the property, whichever is sooner.

Among the properties available with EasyBuy is the three-bedroom Kennet. On the market at £157,500 it can be purchased for an initial outlay of only £133,875 with EasyBuy.

The Kennet enjoys a combined kitchen and dining room, plus a separate lounge. French doors leading from the kitchen-diner and the lounge to the garden offer lots of natural light; while upstairs the master bedroom benefits from an en suite.

First-time buyers have been so keen to snap up coach house style apartments at Lightmoor Green that there’s just one remaining. The two-bedroom Repton has an open plan layout with a combined kitchen, dining and living room. It’s available on the open market at £110.950 or as little as £94,307 with EasyBuy.

Lightmoor Green is conveniently placed at the hub of the new village, a short stroll from the shops and village square. Telford town centre is easily accessible, with strong transport links by road and rail.
