Crest Nicholson is urging prospective homebuyers to act quickly if they want to take advantage of the government’s HomeBuy Direct scheme, which is currently being offered as a stepping stone to home ownership at its popular Poole Quarter development in Poole.
Purchasers have until the end of July to sign up to the scheme, which enables anyone with a household income of less than £60,000 to secure a brand new home at Poole Quarter for just 70% of the property’s initial asking price. This means that an attractive one bedroom apartment at Poole Quarter, priced at £152,000, can be secured for an affordable £106,400 with HomeBuy Direct. The remaining 30 per cent of the property’s market value is then funded by an interest free* “equity loan”, jointly financed by Crest Nicholson and the Government.
Chris Warner, Sales & Marketing Director for Crest Nicholson South, said: “HomeBuy Direct has been a hugely successful initiative, giving hundreds of buyers the purchasing power to invest in a home of their own. The scheme has helped to really open up the market and we would urge people to make the most of the more affordable options available. However, any purchases on the HomeBuy Direct scheme must be complete by September, so anyone thinking about taking advantage of this fantastic incentive and making a reservation should do so by the end of July.”
Poole Quarter is situated near the highly desirable area of Sandbanks and is just 300 metres away from the sea, offering homebuyers the perfect retreat from a busy lifestyle. The development is also conveniently located for local shopping facilities, a leisure complex and Poole Quay.
The interiors at Poole Quarter offer a high level of specification and reflect modern style and comfort. All kitchens are fully fitted with brushed steel Bosch appliances – oven, integrated fridge/freezer – and the bathrooms offer stylish, modern suites.
Prices for a one bedroom apartment at Poole Quarter start from £152,000 which equates to £106,400 when bought through HomeBuy Direct.
