Take advantage of mortgage easing with Persimmon

With weekly reports of new mortgage products and deals coming to the market, Persimmon Homes Anglia is encouraging those thinking about moving onto or up the property ladder to pay a visit to the Lark Rise development in Carlton Colville as the leading homebuilder has a range of affordable properties to view.

“Our collection of one, two, three and four bedroom properties at Lark Rise represents such great value for money,” states Jon Gibbs, sales director for Persimmon Homes Anglia. He adds: “This coupled with the fact that mortgage lending is continuing to ease means our purchasers aren’t required to find such a large deposit as some financial institutions are starting to offer 90 per cent mortgages.”

In addition, Persimmon’s recommended independent financial advisers now have access to a greater variety of fixed, variable and tracker mortgages, and the fact that the Bank of England base rate remains at just 0.5 per cent means monthly mortgage payments are on average far more manageable than in previous years.

Jon continues: “We’re here to reassure those who think they can’t afford to move, that this couldn’t be a better time to relocate and take advantage of the range of mortgage products available.

“Our Lark Rise development currently hosts a selection of one and two bedroom apartments which are ready to move into straight away, plus there are a number of two, three and four bedroom houses which are an ideal option for downsizers and those with families.”

Prices at Lark Rise start from £74,400 for a one bedroom apartment through the company’s 80 per cent shared equity scheme and from £86,360 through shared equity for a two bedroom housetype.

Lark Rise is perfect for first time buyers, offering a lovely community with a public open space on the development where new friendships can begin. A range of shops and local amenities can be found in Carlton Colville, while the town centre of Lowestoft is just a short drive away with plenty of retail and entertainment opportunities.

There are excellent transport links with the main A146 close by, leading to Norwich city centre in just 40 minutes. Lowestoft railway station is on the east coast mainline with trains to Norwich and Ipswich and an intercity connection to London.
