Miller Homes offering helping hand for first time buyers

Fife first time buyers who have high hopes of getting on the first rung of the property ladder should hot foot it along to Miller Homes Regents Park (Crossgates) and Victoria Mills (Dunfermline) developments.

Miller Homes is giving first time buyers a helping hand with some of the necessary, but expensive, costs associated with buying a new home by offering a special financial package to make the dream of owning a home become a reality.

Through its first time buyer incentive, the UK’s largest housebuilder is giving £500 towards legal fees, £500 towards utility bills, £500 towards furniture, plus there is no stamp duty to pay, a freestanding fridge/freezer and washing machine are also included, plus fitted carpets throughout – saving first time buyers thousands of pounds.
Anne Marie Britton, sales director for Miller Homes Scotland East, said: “For many first time buyers, owning their own home is one of life’s greatest achievements. While the vast majority will have saved up for a deposit, there is also the added financial costs that go hand in hand with buying a home, such as legal fees and furnishings, which is why we are offering a tailored package to help first time home owners feel even more excited about their first home.”

Situated within close road and rail commuting links to Edinburgh and beyond, Regents Park in Crossgates has a stunning selection of one to five bedroom homes, with prices starting at £117,500.

For first time buyers looking for a home that is practical, stylish with unique elements, the development’s one bedroom bungalows and two bedroom cottage flats tick all the right boxes and are perfect starter homes.

Situated in Pilmuir Street, on the edge of the centre of Dunfermline, Victoria Mills, which occupies the site of the last weaving mill to be built in Dunfermline, will feature a range of contemporary two-bedroom apartments and three-bedroom duplexes with prices starting at £93,000.

A typical two-bedroom apartment at Victoria Mills is perfect for those looking to take their first steps on the property ladder. The open-plan kitchen/living area provides a relaxed environment for entertaining and both bedrooms have fitted wardrobes, while a contemporary bathroom provides a touch of luxury. Selected apartments also come complete with en-suite facilities to the master bedroom.

And as the first phase of properties will not be complete autumn, it enables househunters to reserve a new home now and buy it next year, giving them more time to save up their deposit.
