Aspiring homeowners can secure selected apartments for 80% of the full purchase price under the FirstBuy scheme at Taylor Wimpey’s Reflections development of new homes for sale in Romford, Essex.

Taylor Wimpey is offering Essex property-seekers an amazing opportunity to get a foot on the property ladder at Reflections, its sought-after development of new flats for sale in Romford.

A first-time buyer with a household income of less than £60,000 can secure selected one-bedroom apartments in Romford for 80% of their full price under the amazing Essex FirstBuy scheme in association with the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA).

For example, under FirstBuy in Romford, the fabulous Plot 33 apartment, priced £136,995, can be purchased with a 75% mortgage of just £102,746 and a 5% deposit of only £6,850, subject to status.

Taylor Wimpey and the HCA will boost the purchaser’s down-payment with a joint loan of 20%, which is repayable at the end of the 25-year mortgage term, or when the property in Romford is sold.

Michael O’Leary, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “With the majority of mortgage lenders demanding deposits of 20% or higher from first-time buyers, it can be a struggle for would-be purchasers in search of property for sale in Romford to raise the money required to secure their first home.

“But with FirstBuy, property ownership is within reach for so many first-time purchasers who would otherwise have been forced to save for years and years to gather a big deposit.

“FirstBuy is subject to limited availability at Reflections and I would urge interested first-time buyers to get in touch with us as soon as possible to avoid missing out!”

One-bedroom apartments in ‘Wave Court’ offer an exceptionally well-planned layout, featuring a light and airy living room with dining area and open-plan kitchen and access to an attractive private balcony.

A spacious bedroom, a main bathroom and a handy storage closet are also located off the private entrance hallway.

Alternatively, a choice of two-bedroom apartments with en-suite master bedrooms and allocated parking to selected plots is available at Reflections from only £165,995.

Every Taylor Wimpey home is being finished to a high standard specification at the development, to include double glazing and a modern fitted kitchen with integral oven, hob and hood.

The new homes enjoy a fabulous position close to the heart of Romford, with The Mall and The Liberty shopping centres on the doorstep. Meanwhile, The Brewery retail and leisure centre offers a multiplex cinema, health and fitness club, bowling alley, restaurants and bars, in addition to Kidspace, Europe’s largest indoor play area.

Just a short walk from the new apartments is Romford station, which puts London’s Liverpool Street Station approximately 17 minutes away by train – and a wealth of theatres, bars, shops and thousands of jobs within easy reach.

To find out more about FirstBuy, home-hunters can visit the Sales and Marketing Suite and showhome, located off Oldchurch Road, Romford, and open Thursday to Monday from 10am to 5.30pm. Alternatively, visit taylorwimpey.co.uk.
