A new 3-bed home in Darwen could be yours from just £315.92 per month
An encouraging message from Miller Homes as it sets out to show just how affordable home ownership is right now.
“Say goodbye to the landlord and hello to the property ladder” said Kay Halls, Miller Homes Sales Manager. Kay continued “with rents on the rise, now is the time for people renting and home buyers to consider their options. Purchasing a new home is now more affordable than people may believe possible.”
Since the financial crisis struck nearly four years ago, when house prices dropped by almost 14%, the Land Registry data shows that average house prices have rebounded and rose by nearly 12% to February 2010. Since then the market has remained fairly static, mainly as a result of lack of mortgage products. This is now changing with new competitive mortgage products becoming more readily available.
The truth is no one knows when house price rises will take off again. Back in 2006 the Government is on the record as stating that there was a need to increase housing supply by 200,000 homes each year up to 2016 to meet the population needs and, on the basis of supply and demand, suppress house price rises. Last year there were just 102,830 new homes built. Pundits are now suggesting that it is not a question of ‘if’ but ‘when’ house prices will rise. The message is clear; if you wait to see the market rise is confirmed it will be too late to get the best bargain. And after all, a house is a home not just an investment.
A new ‘Kitchener’ a 3-bedroom house with en-suite is priced at £99,950 at Miller Homes Woodland Park development close to the centre of Darwen. Kay added: “We have been in touch with independent mortgage advisers who have confirmed that mortgages for the ‘Kitchener’ could cost as little as £315.92† per month.”
New releases of the “Kitchener” are now available and feature a spacious lounge a contemporary kitchen with a stainless steel appliance package and a dining area that has French doors opening on to the rear garden. “For September reservations we are also offering fully fitted carpets and a turfed rear garden.” Kay added.
Full details of the ‘Kitchener’ and the choice of 2 and 3-bed houses priced from just £94,950 plus 2-bed apartments priced from just £54,950 are available from the Woodland Park marketing suite, located off Anyon Street, Darwen, BB3 3AA.
