Great-value apartments in Haywards Heath
Taylor Wimpey is urging parents to ‘get rid of the kids’ and help them step on to the property ladder – with the help of FirstBuy at Vibe, the leading housebuilder’s popular development of new homes for sale in Haywards Heath.
Leading housebuilder Taylor Wimpey has the perfect solution for parents who are still providing a roof over the heads of their grown-up kids – a great chance to secure their choice of stunning apartments for sale in Haywards Heath.
With rising property prices and mortgage providers asking for hefty deposits – particularly with property for sale in Haywards Heath – it’s no surprise that first-time buyers are finding they’re forced to stay in the family home because they can’t afford one of their own.
Fortunately, Taylor Wimpey has introduced the fantastic FirstBuy scheme at its Vibe development of flats for sale in Haywards Heath to help these overgrown offspring fly the nest.
With a limited number of homes at this popular development of new build apartments in Haywards Heath now available under the Government-backed initiative, parents could potentially get rid of the kids by providing a deposit of just £6,500*!
Fiona Creed, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Would-be homeowners are finding it increasingly difficult to take that all-important first step on the property ladder, with the average age of a first-time buyer now an all-time high at 37, and the average deposit required to secure a first home now well in excess of £60,000.
“It’s no surprise, then, that increasing numbers of people are choosing to enjoy those home comforts for longer – which may work out well for them, but isn’t necessarily as much fun for their parents!
“Thankfully with FirstBuy, qualifying purchasers can access their dream apartment at Vibe for just 80% of the price tag – including a 5% deposit, subject to status – which may well be considered a price worth paying for parents looking to help their kids to strike out on their own.”
FirstBuy works through a joint loan of 20% from the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) and Taylor Wimpey – which is repayable at the end of the 25-year mortgage term or when the property is sold. To be eligible, purchasers must be first-time buyers and their total household earnings should be less than £60,000.
For example, the stylish one-bedroom Plot 1 apartment at Vibe, priced £129,995, can be accessed by a qualifying first-time buyer for just 80% of its full price under FirstBuy – that’s just £103,995!
The stunning Plot 1 apartment features a contemporary open-plan living/dining room with fitted kitchen, plus a well-proportioned bedroom, a bathroom and handy storage closets located off the internal entrance hallway, while allocated parking is located outside.
All properties at Vibe are finished to a high standard specification including central heating, double glazing and fitted kitchen with integrated oven, hob and hood, and selected plots boast attractive private balconies.
Vibe lies close to Haywards Heath town centre and less than a mile from Haywards Heath railway station, which offers regular services to London Victoria and London Bridge in around 45 minutes, and to Gatwick Airport and to Brighton in around 20 minutes.
Crawley and the M23 are 13 miles away, putting the M25 within easy reach, while Gatwick Airport is just 21 miles from the development by road.
Haywards Heath is served by a wide range of independent and high street shops, including a Sainsbury’s supermarket, as well as a good selection of restaurants, pubs and cafés. The town benefits from a number of parks and public gardens, has a library, thriving community centre and leisure centre plus a general hospital.
For leisure and days out, a host of attractions is located just a short distance from the new development – the south coast is an easy drive away for days out at the beach, while stretching from the South Downs to the Surrey border is pretty countryside dotted with historic houses, famous gardens and lovely villages.
