Downsizing made easy with Miller Homes

Lynn and David Hastings have just moved into a brand new apartment at Miller Homes Orchard Green development in Westhoughton, thanks to Miller Homes’ MiSwap home exchange scheme.

Lynn and David moved from Leigh where they owned a 3 bedroom bungalow with separate dining room, spacious conservatory and large garden. David says: “With Lynn’s mobility becoming more restricted we decided it was time to move to a smaller more manageable home. We were a bit concerned about how long it might take to sell our home, as the market is so slow. You can imagine how pleased we were to discover the Miller Homes MiSwap home exchange scheme. It was just perfect for us and has allowed us to move in such a short space of time.”

Originally Lynn and David were looking at buying a house until the new apartments became available and they simply fell in love with the layout. David says: “Our apartment is on the ground floor, which is ideal for Lynn. As soon as we saw it we decided that it was much more appropriate for us than a house and we’re really pleased we did.”

The Miller Homes MiSwap home exchange scheme is ideal for those wishing to upsize, although as Lynn and David have found out, it works just as effectively if you decide to downsize. MiSwap is a 100% part exchange option that enables homeowners to trade their old home against a new Miller Homes property, whether it is worth more, the same or less than the property they wish to buy. Miller Homes purchases your home at a fair and independently assessed price, removing the hassle and stress of having people to view your home, waiting in a lengthy chain or even worse facing a break in the chain.

David says: “Buying our new apartment with Miller Homes using MiSwap has been one of the best things we have done. When we got the keys to our new home we were allowed a full week to move all of our things from the bungalow. This was so helpful, as you can imagine we moved from a very large family house to our lovely new two bedroom apartment. We had so many boxes, but having a full week to tackle the move was fantastic. All in all Miller Homes has been great. We can’t thank them enough. I want to mention Carl the Site Manager in particular. He has been so helpful and supportive with the minor tweaks we had when we moved in.”

MiSwap is meant to make life easier for people who want to buy a new Miller Home without the stress and hassle of moving. Lynn and David’s experience confirms that downsizing with MiSwap was simple and stress free. David concludes: “We have been pleasantly surprised by how easy the buying process has been. We would recommend anyone thinking of buying a new home to consider Miller Homes and to definitely explore the MiSwap option. We got a really good deal and we have a wonderful new home without having to wait years to sell our old one.”
