Affordable apartments in Selby selling fast

Redrow’s popular Debut @ Selby venture.

Buy now, before it’s too late – that’s the message from Redrow as its popular Debut @ Selby venture nears sell-out.

Available ready furnished, the stylish, affordable apartments are ideal for first time buyers. But with just seven homes still available, potential purchasers could soon find they’ve left it too late – especially as a relatively small deposit may be enough to secure a brand new home.

Patsy Aicken, sales director for Redrow Homes (Yorkshire), commented: “Research by the Halifax* indicates that the majority of non-homeowners want to buy but think they won’t be able to secure a mortgage without a large cash deposit. However, those with savings of around £2,100 may be surprised to discover that they could have enough to secure a furnished apartment at Debut @ Selby. It’s an attractive prospect for those who long for a home of their own and we expect to see a keen interest in the remaining apartments.”

One-bedroom apartments are available from £52,999. Customers can defer paying up to a quarter of the price with Redrow’s easi:buy scheme, reducing their initial outlay to just £39,749. The remaining share can be paid back over 10 years or when the home is resold.

“Buyers will only need a mortgage for a maximum of 75% of the property’s value and should have access to some of the better mortgage interest rates; usually reserved for those with large deposits or substantial equity in an existing home. They could even find that their mortgage repayments are less than the rent they would pay for a similar sized property,” Patsy explained.

“And to help make setting up home even easier we’re offering to include a furniture pack of essentials such as a sofa, a bed and bedding and even kitchen utensils in the price of selected apartments. Plus there’s no need to worry about managing your money as we’re making it simple to budget by including gas, electricity and water bills, plus window cleaning in a single monthly service charge.”

The apartments are within walking distance of the centre of Selby which boasts a wealth of local amenities. The cities of York, Leeds and Doncaster are easily accessible by road and rail, making the development the ideal base for commuters.
