First time buyers in Sussex who want to get onto the property ladder are being invited to attend a launch event on Saturday 30 January between 10am and 5pm at Roebuck Park in Hellingly, Hailsham, East Sussex. Moat, the government appointed HomeBuy Agent for Sussex is attending the event, organised by Persimmon Homes.

Moat staff will be on hand to talk through HomeBuy Direct. At Roebuck Park, two, three and four bedroom homes are available through HomeBuy Direct for as little as £125,997 for a 70% share.

HomeBuy Direct is available in Essex, Kent and Sussex through Moat and participating house builders. It aims to make more new affordable homes available to eligible buyers priced out of the housing market. The scheme is offered at specific new build developments where a contract exists between the Homes and Communities Agency and the developer. Purchasers buy a minimum of 70% of the market value of a property. Buyers are then offered an equity loan of up to 30% of the purchase price, co funded by the government and the developer. Buyers will need to raise a mortgage to purchase their percentage of the property through this scheme and can also use any savings to contribute as a deposit towards their share.

Come along and discuss how HomeBuy could work for you. There is no need to book an appointment – just drop in and see us!

Further information about the session is available by calling Persimmon Homes on 08444 900100.

Further information about all HomeBuy options is available by calling Moat on 0845 359 6161 or visiting www.moat.co.uk
