Determined step onto the property ladder but are concerned that you don’t have enough funds to do so? Heard the word FirstBuy but don’t completely understand what the new home moving scheme is all about?

If so, you need to pay a visit to Persimmon Homes’ The Marketplace development in Gloucester where the Government-led 80 per cent FirstBuy scheme is now on offer.

Alison Reading, sales director for Persimmon Homes South Midlands, is confident the initiative will help local househunters. She said: “As a Group Persimmon Homes has been given the largest allocation of properties through FirstBuy by the Government and we are delighted to offer the scheme to purchasers at our The Marketplace development.”

Through FirstBuy purchasers will own 100 per cent of their new home and are required to raise funding (a mortgage plus deposit) of at least 80 per cent of the purchase price. The remaining 20 per cent is an interest free loan for the first five years.

The Marketplace hosts a beautiful collection of sizeable two bedroom Nailsworth apartments, with prices through the FirstBuy scheme starting from as little as £98,396 and to give interested parties an idea of how these designs will look, Persimmon has opened a new Nailsworth show apartment.

To find out more about the FirstBuy scheme, log onto www.persimmonhomes.com/firstbuy.

Alison concludes: “Due to a limited supply of housetypes through the FirstBuy initiative, I’d recommend househunters speak to our sales advisers sooner rather than later as there are just three Nailsworth apartments remaining in the current release of properties at The Marketplace.”
