Moat, the government appointed HomeBuy Agent for Sussex, is inviting first time buyers to a HomeBuy Direct event on Saturday 6 March between 11am and 3pm at The Birch Hotel, Lewes Road, Haywards Heath, West Sussex, RH17 7SF.
Staff from Moat will be on hand to explain the advantages of the government backed scheme and offer help and advice to homebuyers. Visitors will have the chance to talk to house builders about available new homes and there will be financial advisors present to advise first time buyers about their options.
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 event is available by calling Moat on 0845 359 6161.
