Government Scheme Aims to Help First-Time Buyers
The Government recently unveiled a scheme to assist first-time buyers in England onto the property ladder, with further details expected in the Budget. The Your First Home initiative, announced at the weekend, allows first-time buyers to purchase a new-build property with a 2.5% deposit, with the Government lending an additional 20% towards the cost.
The Top Five Most Viewed Properties
At number five is a three-bedroom end terrace home on Stockbridge Lane, Huyton. With no onward chain and gated off-road parking, it is ready for someone to make their own mark, though the interior may not win design awards. It is on the market seeking offers over £140,000.
The third most viewed property is on Fieldton Road, Norris Green. This three-bedroom semi-detached home has two bathrooms and has been recently refurbished with a clean, neutral look. Its highlight is a modern, spacious kitchen with an island unit. It is seeking offers of £160,000 or over and is currently under offer.
Number two is a property on Houlston Road in the West Vale area of Kirkby, described as immaculate. It features an open-plan converted kitchen diner with modern fittings and bi-fold doors, full of light and space. The vendor is seeking offers of £170,000, and it is currently under offer.
