Homebuyers in Wolverhampton urged to take advantage of new government scheme

First time buyers in Wolverhampton are being urged not to miss out on their chance to buy a new home at Morris’ landmark Bilston development for just 70 per cent of the purchase price.

The final release of apartments at the Claremont development on Wellington Road are now available under the Government-led HomeBuy Direct scheme, which enables qualifying first time buyers to purchase a new home with a mortgage from just 70 per cent of its value and without needing a large deposit.

Julie Smith, regional sales director for Morris, said: “The HomeBuy Direct scheme is a great opportunity for first time buyers who want to get on the property ladder but, so far, have been unable to afford it.

“Claremont has proved to be a particularly popular development due to the distinctive character of the building and its surroundings and we’re delighted to be able to apply the scheme to the last remaining apartments.”

The apartments at Claremont are part of a striking conversion of the Grade II listed former Bilston Girls’ High School. The development is set in estate managed grounds and features an electric gated entrance, providing extra exclusivity to residents.

The remaining one and two bedroom apartments at the development start from just £73,500*.

Julie continued: “The homes at Claremont are ideal for first time buyers and couples looking for a good quality home in a unique location. However, with only a handful of apartments left at this development, we’d urge homebuyers to register their interest with us as soon as possible to avoid missing out. ”

A new phase of three and four bedroom townhouses and detached homes will be launched at the Claremont development soon.
