Bluebell Nuneaton

New community emerging in Camp Hill

23rd September 2010

IF you are thinking about moving, but aren't sure if you can afford to buy, then help is at hand from the region's leading housebuilder, Barratt Mercia at its Bluebell development on Queen Elizabeth Road in Camp Hill.

Anyone looking to move to a brand new home and who has an existing property to sell could take advantage of Barratt's popular 100 per cent part-exchange scheme. Plus, for a very limited time, purchasers could move into the new home for just 85 per cent of the price thanks to Barratt's shared equity scheme called Head Start.

Steve Barton, Sales Manager for Barratt Mercia commented, "We have recently seen a number of people visit our Bluebell development who are keen to move to a larger home, but aren't sure if they can afford to do so.

"Therefore, I am delighted to be able to offer this exclusive deal to buyers in Nuneaton which is not available at any of our other developments.

Barratt's part-exchange and Head Start schemes are currently available separately at other developments in the area, but this is the first time that they will be offered together and is a reaction to the fact that many people are in desperate need of a larger home, but can't afford to move.

With Barratt's 100 per cent part-exchange scheme, the firm buys your existing home at full market value leaving you free to buy one of theirs. There are no estate agent fees to pay or viewings to arrange. Plus, because Barratt is effectively a cash buyer, there is no chance of the dreaded chain falling apart.

Head Start is a shared equity scheme which allows buyers to move into a brand new Barratt home for just 85 per cent of the price. There is no interest or rent to pay on the outstanding amount, the deferred 15 per cent is simply paid back as 15 per cent of the property's open market value up to the point of resale or within ten years, whichever is sooner.

Steve added, "We currently have a selection of three- and four-bedroom houses available to buy with this scheme at Bluebell priced from only £150,000. This means that with Head Start, buyers could move in for an initial outlay of as little as £127,500 and they avoid costly estate agent fees by taking advantage of our 100 per cent part-exchange scheme to sell their old home.

"This is an exclusive offer to Bluebell and is not available at any of our other developments, so I anticipate demand to be high. This will only be available to five purchasers, so I urge anyone interested to get in touch today to avoid disappointment."

Barratt Mercia is also offering an extended five-year warranty on fixtures and fittings. The items which Barratt will cover at no extra cost to the buyer will include appliances such as washing machines and refrigerators, kitchen units, wardrobes, the central heating system, fires, doors, windows, drainage, the hot and cold plumbing system and even the driveway.

The five-year guarantee of fixtures and fittings in place at the time of purchase is in addition to the existing ten-year warranty on the structure of new homes and remains valid even if the home is sold on to a new owner.

The exclusive offer, which is not available from any other housebuilder, marks the culmination of an intensive programme in which the company has focused on raising further the industry-leading quality of its homes.
