Help to break the rental cycle in Worcester

6th June 2023
Redrow - News - Help to break the rental cycle in Worcester

Worcester renters who have been unable to save for a large house deposit may now be able to buy thanks to zero or low-deposit mortgages and help.

Redrow Midlands, currently building at Kensington Gate, on Bromyard Road, is offering advice and support to first-time buyers who want to escape the rental trap and step onto the property ladder in Worcester.

Elaine Cartwright, Sales Director for Redrow Midlands, said: “With the news that Skipton Building Society is now offering zero deposit mortgages* for people who have rented for at least 12 months, the options for first-time buyers without substantial savings have increased.

“One of the advantages of buying a brand-new property is that purchasers have help and support at every step, from the moment they choose their plot to opening their front door for the very first time. Along the journey, house buyers have access to our recommended solicitors and mortgage specialists, who can help to provide the best products available and who are experts in the Worcester property market.”

Skipton’s new five-year fixed rate Track Record Mortgage is open to first-time buyers aged 21 or over, who have been renting and paying bills for at least 12 consecutive months. The offer does not require a family member or friend to act as a guarantor and cannot be used to buy a new build apartment.

Those looking to take advantage of this offer can do so at Kensington Gate, which offers a collection of two, three and four-bedroom homes from the housebuilder’s Heritage Collection, with architecture inspired by the Arts and Crafts era and high spec, modern interiors.

Ideal for first-time buyers, the two-bedroom, semi-detched Buxton boasts a range of luxury finishes, including fitted wardrobes in both bedrooms and an en-suite to the main bedroom. An open-plan kitchen, dining area and lounge is the perfect space to entertain or relax, with double French doors providing ample natural light, a greater sense of space, and easy access to the garden.

Elaine Cartwright added: “The Buxton is perfect for couples, professionals and growing families alike. Those who have been renting can move straight in with no need to undertake any costly renovations or maintenance work – leaving more money left over for those all-important takeaways when you’re still unpacking.

“Every home at Kensington Gate boasts high specification kitchens and bathrooms and buyers can choose from a host of options and extras via My Redrow, the exclusive members’ area of our website, to add those all-important finishing touches.”

Kensington Gate is located in a peaceful, residential area, just minutes away from the beautiful city of Worcester. Surrounded by open, green spaces, with a good selection of schools and superb transport links, this development promises to be popular with homebuyers.
