LETTINGS agency Bluerow has let ● out more than 20,000 square foot of residential space in Kaber Court.
The company has completed its final let of 32 flats at the scheme on Brunswick Dock, Liverpool. Kaber Court is a contemporary development of two bedroom apartments by Stewart Milne Homes. Situated off Horsefall Street, on Liverpool's waterfront, the apartments each have allocated parking and most have balconies with views of the Mersey or the city. According to Helen Griffin-Booth, managing director of Bluerow Lettings, the Brunswick Dock area and Kaber Court as a whole is the rental hotspot of the city. She says: “Kaber Court is just one of a number of popular developments in the Brunswick Dock area. The area as a whole is in demand because of its closeness to the city, the quality of the developments, the views towards the estuary and the fact that all properties have parking.” Bluerow has seen a huge spike in lettings in the last year, with demand for rental properties at a peak. Helen says: “The rental market is booming at the moment. However, while the market is buoyant, location is key. Areas like Brunswick Dock, Sefton Park and the Georgian Quarter are prime rental hotspots in Liverpool and make a good choice for investors looking for buy to let properties.” Bluerow has seen turnover grow by more than 40% since its launch in early 2008, with turnover increasing by 20% over the last 12 months. The company now has a portfolio of more than 400 properties and the firm is looking for more owners who have properties to rent.

says: “The research states that the recovery will begin to turn around at Christmas time, allowing investors and regular buyers three more auctions before the 4% year on year surge is predicted to start. This great opportunity could especially interest investors who could pick up a bargain at our next auction, renovate and refurbish the property and then sell it on for a higher price. “An auction is the perfect platform for doing this because with a 28-day completion period from the moment of exchange, the whole transaction couldn’t be quicker by selling in any other way.” The auction, held at the Hilton Hotel in Liverpool One, is set to hold a variety of lots including residential, commercial, and many development opportunities for landlords and investors, with lots from all over Merseyside.

New homes keep communities alive
T
HE nightmare of being told his home was to be demolished has turned into a dream for a Liverpool father. Ian Guilfoyle, 46, was devastated when he was told his house in Salisbury Road would be compulsorily purchased as part of Liverpool’s Housing Renewal Programme. Worried and confused over where he and his family would live, Ian feared the worst. But now, he is delighted, and Ian and his family are preparing to move into the home of their dreams at The Parks development in the regeneration area of Anfield/ Breckfield. After getting over the initial shock, Ian talked to the council about how his family could be re-housed. He told officials they would ideally like a place with a room for each of his two sons, another for his elderly mother-in-law, a garden and to be surrounded by his neighbours. Ian admits: “I was devastated when I was told my house would be demolished but everyone has been really supportive and helpful and now the nightmare has turned into a dream. “I’ve seen the plans for the development and the house and I am delighted. “I’ve also discovered neighbours will once again all be living close by.” It’s reassuring news for the Guilfoyles. Adds Ian: “The family is thrilled, the boys especially; you would think they were moving into a bachelor pad the way they’re carrying on. “More importantly, my wife is really pleased that her mother will be moving into a home more suited to her needs.” The house Ian, his wife Joan, 44, his sons Liam, aged 15, Jack, 10, and his 75-year-old mother-in-law will be moving into is the four bedroomed, three storey Orchid house type. The family have financed the move through the money they received from the compulsory purchase of their old home, a loan and a small mortgage. Ian and his family recently

by JANET TANSLEY visited the site and the plot where their new house is being built. Built by developer Keepmoat Homes and named The Parks, the development is a priority scheme within Liverpool’s Housing Renewal Programme. The scheme is delivered by Liverpool City Council, supported by Arena Housing Group and part-funded by the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) and forms part of the wider regeneration proposals for the area which were developed with community involvement. Tom Merrills, Partnership Project Manager with Keepmoat
Homes North West, says: “We often work in partnership with local councils so understand the sensitivities of regeneration and the need to ensure a positive outcome for families and the community.” The first homes have gone up for sale on The Parks and it will initially deliver 38 homes for private sale. Just off Robson Street and Breckfield Road North, all the properties are available through Keepmoat Homes’ own shared equity scheme and other homes are available through the popular government backed HomeBuy Direct scheme. Using the initiatives buyers receive either 15% or 30% equity loan, depending on which scheme they use, towards
the cost of the property. This means that the prospective purchasers would own 100% of the property while only having to finance 85% or 70% of the cost upfront. Homes for sale on the development include the three bedroom Violet house type, priced at £72,097 when bought using HomeBuy Direct and the three bedroom, three storey Rose, available for £93,097, when using HomeBuy Direct. For more information about The Parks, HomeBuy Direct, shared equity or any of the house types available please call Tel: 0847 450 3855 or visit the sales office open Thursday to Monday 10am – 5pm.

More homes is the answer to price increase LEADING housebuilder, Miller Homes, has dismissed the calls of a think tank to cap mortgage loan to values (LTVs) to 90%, claiming they have “missed the point” when it comes to preventing a future housing bubble. And it says that supply and demand will be a far more serious problem over the coming years. The warnings follow the recent report from The Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR), in which economists argued that a cap on “loose mortgage lending” would help to stop excessive increases in house prices. The report went on to say that the UK’s, “addiction to house price inflation” was bad for the economy and that a central plank of government economic policy should be to ensure that there is greater stability in house prices. But Sue Warwick, National Sales and Marketing Director for Miller Homes, says: “ We do need lenders to relax a little when it comes to granting mortgages to sensible, hardworking people. “I know of a young couple –a doctor and a lawyer – who have never had a scrap of debt, never defaulted on a mortgage repayment and have £100k in equity. They put in an offer on a new home (due to relocation) only to find their mortgage company retract on the previously agreed LTV because of ‘changes in the market’. “With respect to
the IPPR, I think that we are some way off needing to urge banks to rein in their lending criteria. “I therefore propose an alternative solution to the boom and bust property cycle. We simply increase the housing supply.” Kate Barker, a former member of the Monetary Policy of the Bank of England, recommended the same in her Governmentordered review of the British housing market in 2004. Since then, there has been a sharp decline in the output of new homes in Britain. In the third quarter of 2010, planning permissions for new homes were at one of the lowest levels in the last five years, and the second lowest of the last nineteen quarters. Sue adds: “Much of this can be put down to the change in Government and subsequent disarray in planning procedures after Communities Secretary, Eric Pickles, announced a radical change of planning policy. It needed changing – yes. But it needed changing faster than this. “If there aren’t enough homes to house our ever growing population, we will soon return to a sellers’ market. And with more and more people chasing fewer and fewer houses, there is only one way the price is going to go. Up – and I don’t need a think tank to tell me what all this means. And neither does anyone else, I suspect.”

Strawberry Doorstop, £17.50, Babyface
Where was the family home you grew up in and what was it like? It was 40 Ayleton Road, Huyton in Liverpool. It was a very small terraced house with three bedrooms. It had to accommodate a family of 13, given my mother had kids from her previous marriage, so did my dad and, in addition, they had kids together of which I was next to last! It wasn't all hardship though because we did have the luxury of an inside toilet! What is your clearest memory of the house? My first memory was a street party. I was born in January 1952 and can just about remember being held high in the air outside the house by my elder sister on the Queen’s Coronation. Where was the first house you bought yourself and what did it cost? My first house was in Penketh in Warrington. It cost about £7k.
▼
What made you want to buy it? I had started a new job at Granada Studios, when I was 19. I bought the house when I was 21 as I was then married with a child on the way! Everybody at Granada had a mortgage and the truth is I learned more about mortgages during my early time at Granada than I ever did about TV Production.

What are the important things you look for when buying a house? Given my engineering background it would be most likely to think I would say structure, rigidity of foundation, lack of any subsidence and all the kind of objective assessments people with professional careers are supposed to be mindful of. However, my first concerns were always the size of the kitchen and how many rooms it's got so I could fill them with televisions!

Are you a DIY trier or do you leave it to the experts? Don't be silly! Eengineers would rather slash their wrists than admit they need to bring a man in and in those isolated moments when any engineer has had to agree to bring an 'expert' in, the expert would often leave because, as in my case, we would always presume to know more than the expert and clearly this was intolerable to them. However, over the years I have learned that sometimes bringing a man in is the better option – but I'll only whisper that as I am still coming to terms with it. What is the one thing you love most about your current home. I think the gardens surrounding my home, given it is tucked away in a private enclave and has a vast amount of common area dedicated only to the residents.

FITTING a new door isn’t always easy, but follow these tips and it won’t be such a chore. ● If the weather’s nice, get out into your garden and cut your door down to size. ● Don’t be tempted to fit the door furniture before you’ve fitted the door. The same applies to painting the door and doorframe. Fitting a door usually involves a lot of trial and error and it’s easy to scrape the door and frame in the process, so wait until you’ve finished before doing any painting. ● Most doors have to be trimmed to fit, but if you live in a period property, getting the doors to fit can be a struggle because period doors tend not to be a standard size and your door frames may have moved over time. ● Getting the door the right size is often tricky, time-consuming and frustrating. You don’t want it to scrape on the floor (protect the floor, if necessary, when fitting the door) and you don’t want a large gap at the top or bottom that lets in draughts (you can add strips of wood here, if you need to). Getting an exact fit at the sides is most important because otherwise the door won’t close properly. ● You’ll probably need a circular saw to cut the door to fit, as most doors are too thick for jigsaws. Once you’ve got the door pretty much the right size, use a plane (preferably an electric one) to shave off smaller amounts of wood until the door fits exactly. Cut a door down too much and you could compromise its structure, so it’s essential to get it right. ● You may have to move the position of the hinges and the lock and handle parts on the door or frame, or sometimes both. Do whatever’s easiest, without affecting the way the door works. External doors are harder to fit than internal ones because of the security aspect, so you may prefer to employ a professional to fit these.

Space for students by JANET TANSLEY
W
HATEVER the market, property is still considered as a solid investment, especially if you are prepared to play the long game. But for many, it’s not an option due to the funds needed, at least at first. But would-be investors are now finding a new area in which playing the property game becomes a realistic option, thanks to the student accommodation market. Liverpool has seen many student developments appear over recent years and a new one in Hatton Garden is offering a fresh opportunity. Hatton Garden is a prestigious student accommodation development offering spacious en-suite rooms in the city. The development offers student rooms set within a fully refurbished early 19th century listed building. There are 98 en-suite student rooms with kitchens, furnished communal lounges, a 42” flat-screen television on each floor, an on-site gymnasium, computer/media service centre, management office and laundry facilities. The refurbishment and finish is expected to be of a high quality with carpet, blinds, a bed, wardrobe, workstation, internet connection and flat screen television in the rooms. Sold on a leasehold basis for a period of 250 years, the entire building will be managed by Penlake Limited which has more than 10 years’ experience. Rentals will begin from March 1 2012 on a monthly basis. Overseas students on short courses will be placed from March 2012 with the majority of students renting coming from Liverpool John Moores University. Prices start from £48,000 with a 10.03 per cent NET yield – assured in year 1. For more information on this investment opportunity contact Property Frontiers on 01865 202 700 or visit www.propertyfrontiers.com
AN EDUCATION; The growth in student accommodation is offering new opportunities to investors
Investing in the future of our country SAVVY investors are fast realising the double-digit attractions of the UK’s newest buy to let sector – student accommodation. It is however, according to the expert authors of the new Knight Frank Student Report 2011, the regional cities of England and Wales which are seeing the greatest rental growth, 4.1 per cent, compared with historical leader, London, which recorded a 3.6 per cent fall in 2010. Ray Withers, Director of Property Frontiers – which has marketed numerous student accommodation projects in Liverpool – says: “The returns that purpose built student accommodation can yield do vary geographically
and the Knight Frank Student Report 2011 confirms this. In Liverpool, home to three of the country’s leading universities and some 53,000 students, rents in the last academic year, 2008/9 – 2009/10, increased by 13 per cent, vastly exceeding the average 5 per cent growth per annum seen nationally in the six years to 2008/9 (Knight Frank 2010). “Furthermore with Liverpool’s universities expecting to attract high numbers of applicants for the next academic year, 2011/12, the city presents strong demand for student accommodation and in turn an attractive opportunity for buy-to-let investors.”
The Government’s radical reforms in university funding and student finance, which will come into force in Q3 2012, will undeniably change the landscape of higher education in the UK in the coming years. But the fact remains that more and more people from both home and overseas are seeking to attend university in the UK, placing increasing pressure on both the number of places available and student housing stock. According to data from the Universities & Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) demand for academic courses is at an all time high with nearly 700,000 university applications in 2010.
Home prices soar as super rich flock to own a piece of Paris WITH its fantastic arhitecture and wondeful sights, who doesn’t love Paris? And the super-rich love it even more, which helps explain why luxury house prices in Paris surged by 22% in a year. London and country agents Knight Frank track the performance of prime real estate in 15 cities across Europe, Asia and America and say that property prices in Paris are being driven primarily by supply constraints and growing interest from overseas buyers. Moscow's prime residential
market recorded the weakest performance, with prices down 8.0% in the year to March, 2011. Its rate of decline is slowing now, with a -0.7% drop recorded in the last quarter. London, with a rise of 8.6% and level with Singapore, holds sixth place in Knight Frank’s league table. But London has broken through the £6,000 per sq ft level, with the Candy brothers development of One Hyde Park West, in Knightsbridge, in the past year. One-bedroom flats in the scheme cost around £6m.
And Liam Bailey, head of residential research at Knight Frank, predicts that by the end of this decade people could be forking out £10,000 per sq ft in the Capital. "My view is that this won't happen in Asia – the first market to break this barrier will be London," says Bailey. Bailey says that, a year ago there was a clear continental divide in the world's prime property markets: Asian cities held top rankings for price inflation, with Europe and the US lagging way behind.
Today, the contrast is less clear cut: the gap between the performance of Europe and Asia's top cities has narrowed as Asian governments attempts to damp down house price inflation started to take effect and European prime housing markets emerge from the downturn. "Although the rate of growth in Asia is more subdued, elsewhere supply and demand imbalances are fuelling prime property price rises in cities such as Paris, London and Helsinki."

Homeowners could save thousands with a condition report MANY home buyers take a risk by relying entirely on the valuation of a bank or building society to find out any defects in the homes which they plan to buy. Richard Sexton, a director of e.surv, part of LSL Property Services, says: “The lender’s valuation will establish what a home is worth and its approximate state of repair. “It won’t necessarily reveal all the problems which can trigger some hefty repair bills after the buyers move in.”
When prices were soaring, this didn’t matter so much. Buyers could sit tight, wait for prices to climb and eventually get their money back. In today’s tighter, slower market, serious defects could see some buyers losing substantial sums when they resell. So e.surv is backing a new RICS Condition Report in the hope that its affordability will encourage more consumers to get a private survey instead of relying solely on the lender’s valuation. The new report costs from around £200,
approximately £150 cheaper than the Homebuyer Report. Richard says: “Eight out of 10 buyers currently fail to arrange private surveys, and it costs an average £1,800 in repair costs for unidentified defects when they move in. If more people take out a survey, fewer are likely to suffer the heartache of shelling out hundreds and even thousands of pounds to repair defects a survey would have found.” The Condition Report offers a ‘traffic lights’ coding system to
rate individual aspects of a home, and highlights defects needing attention. It also provides advice to buyers’ solicitors – but it won’t include fault advice or a market valuation. Richard adds: “Anything that offers consumers an alternative to relying on a lender’s valuation is welcome. Too many buyers don’t realise a lender’s valuation isn’t really designed to spot potential repairs and defects. “It is people buying more
expensive properties who tend to opt for a private survey, while the less well-off avoid the added expense. “The Condition Report has broader appeal, especially to those on tight budgets. “It isn’t as comprehensive as a Building Survey or RICS Homebuyer Report, but it still covers the fundamental aspects of a private survey.” For further information log onto www.esurv.co.uk or call 0800 169 9661.

GUIDE ... to neighbourhoods Why live in... Gateacre

PROPERTY 9
PICTURESQUE: Gateacre Village. Inset top, houses on Grange Meadow Road. Inset bottom, Gateacre Grange is one of the bigger properties in the area

LENDING the modern with the historic is a difficult trick, but one that Gateacre pulls off well. The area has so many historic buildings that in the late 1960s it became a designated conservation area – one of the first in the UK. The reason it’s so remarkable is because it houses more than 100 listed buildings within a quarter mile radius of the village centre. Gateacre certainly manages to pack in a lot of architectural history into a compact space. Of course, this makes it a rather attractive area to live in and to visit. Walk around the village streets and you’ll spot many interesting and historic sights, such as the village green, the mock Tudor facade of The Black Bull pub – which was an 18th century coaching inn – or the Gateacre Unitarian
Chapel near the village green – one of the oldest churches in Liverpool, dating from 1700. You’ll see late-Georgian and early-Victorian era villas, and many of the houses have been constructed from sandstone from the nearby quarry in Woolton. The oldest building in the area is Grange Lodge, and there are a number of Grade II listed cottages from the early 18th century too. If you’re thinking about living in the area you’ll see there’s no shortage of residential properties in this affluent area of Merseyside. Gateacre is around six miles outside the city centre in South Liverpool, and borders the areas of Childwall, Belle Vale and Woolton. Most of the houses you’ll find for sale will be newer detached and semidetached properties, with some older terraced houses too. More recent
AMUSED? Local children clean Queen Victoria’s statue
developments in the area have increased the amount of desirable modern apartments available to buy. The odd character or listed property will also become available occasionally. There is a local school, Gateacre Community Comprehensive, some shops and larger supermarkets nearby, while Gateacre Garden Centre is handy to while away a few hours on a Sunday afternoon if your fingers are decidedly green! Some examples of property for sale in Gateacre include two and three bed terraces on Sandfield Road priced from £179,000 to £204,995. A two bed cottage on Halewood Road costs £124,950, while a two bedroom flat on the same road is on sale for £89,950. While in the attractive Rose Brow area of Gateacre a double-fronted detached property costs around £800,000. The area is well-served by bus services, with the closest stations being Broadgreen and Mossley Hill, while John Lennon Airport is easily accessible, as is the motorway network. There are some pleasant green spaces not too far away, with Reynolds Park and Belle Vale Park, while Lee Park Golf Club is nearby – an 18-hole parkland course for those who love nothing better than to tackle the greens and fairways. So, if you’d like to live in a village steeped in the past, but with all the comforts of the modern world close at hand, Gateacre could be perfect for you.

Surviving the dry After one of the driest springs on record, it's time to get water wise, says Hannah Stephenson
I
'M SURE many of us basked in the glorious spring sunshine earlier this year, but beds, borders and pots were drying up before our eyes. Now, after one of the driest springs on record, some areas are in a state of a drought, raising fears of a possible accompanying hosepipe ban. The Environment Agency has said that East Anglia is an area of concern. Other regions may escape drought status, but we all need to do our bit to save what water we do have. The Environment Agency advises householders not to let water run to waste while waiting for the water to get hot. Collect it and use it to water your plants. Similarly, collect the running water in your shower before getting in. Use water-retaining crystals when planting up container plants and invest in a water butt which you can put under a drainpipe or other suitable gully and re-use the water in your garden. The Royal Horticultural society has come up with 10 tips to help save water this summer. 1. Use waste water from washing-up or rinsing vegetables for watering, as normal amounts of household soaps and detergents will not harm soil or plants. 2. Let your lawns go brown. They will recover when the rains return. Newly sown and turfed lawns will
LUXURY: Hosepipes may be soon be banned if the drought continues require a lot of watering to be successful, so leave sowing or turfing until the autumn. Lawn seed companies are breeding deeper rooted grasses that hopefully will stay green for longer. These will be worth considering, particularly in drier regions.
lettuces begins to form and when potatoes show flower buds, which initiate plenty of tubers. Most herbs are robust and better flavoured for a little drought. Digging in organic matter in winter can enable soils to hold enough water for crops to keep going for a month with no rain.
3. Vegetables need moist soils to give their best. Water them at key growth stages. The response to water is especially marked when sweetcorn, peas and beans begin to flower, when the edible part of
4. Mature trees, shrubs and climbers, hedges, fruit trees and bushes will not need watering during a drought. However, newly planted trees, shrubs and climbers are extremely vulnerable and it is
Best Of The Bunch Rose (Rosa) THEY are the quintessential cottage garden stalwart, but roses have come a long way since Victorian times and are now available in a vast range of colours, habits and flower shapes to suit all situations. Place them in sun if you can and dig in plenty of organic matter beforehand. Once they are planted, feed them regularly with a proper rose feed with balanced nutrients because they are greedy plants which need plenty of energy to flower prolifically for a few months every year. You also need to mulch them annually with well-rotted manure or compost in spring, which will help suppress weeds and retain moisture. Roses need annual pruning - some more than others - cutting out the dead growth and weak shoots and always cutting to an outward-facing bud so that the new shoots grow away from the centre of the plant. My favourites include the David Austin shrub rose 'Gertrude Jekyll', which grows to around 2m and bears huge, blousy, deliciously scented pink blooms. Only a few roses are tolerant of being grown in containers, as they generally have long shallow roots for anchoring the plant and searching out moisture and nutrients. You'll need a deep container for a good show of blooms. Try the patio rose, R. 'Wildfire', which produces blazing orange blooms all summer.
difficult to ensure the water applied at the surface works its way down to the roots. Don't leave hoses running all night - the water will either saturate the roots and possibly kill them or it will drain deeply below the root zone. Water should always be applied over the surface so it soaks the rootball and surrounding soil. 5. Fruit may remain small if not watered, but it should be sweet and well coloured. Cane fruit and strawberries will benefit by keeping
the soil moist every two weeks. In future adding mulches in winter will help improve the soil and retain more moisture. 6. In sunny summers install greenhouse and conservatory shading and ventilation to limit overheating and invest in a min-max thermometer. 7. By grouping pots, ideally in clusters of similar size, watering is made easier and moisture loss reduced. Mass pots for mutual
Things to do this week ● Pinch out the tips of dahlias to promote bushy plants. ● Protect soft fruit from birds by throwing nets over the bushes or by building a fruit cage. ● Plant out hardened-off tender and half-hardy fuchsias into beds, borders and containers. ● Take cuttings of carnations, fuchsias, herbs and many shrubs and perennials to root in the greenhouse. ● Harvest globe artichokes before they begin to flower. ● Apply a top-dressing of compost to indoor cucumbers as the roots grow through the existing soil. ● In milder areas, sow late runner beans for harvesting through to the end of October. ● Sow seeds of swedes to provide a crop from October through to March. ● Cut down the foliage of bulbs naturalised in grass, at least six weeks after flowering.

spell shading and use the largest pots possible. As days lengthen and the sun rises, more plants, especially large-leaved ones, can be gathered in shadier areas. A saucer beneath the pot to retain run-off helps. 8. Don't dig new ground in summer if you can avoid it, as digging soil allows any remaining moisture to escape. Hoe off weeds as shallowly as you can, loosen soil with a fork and 'puddle' plants into the soil, adding a little liquid fertiliser. Adding nutrients helps plants make the best use of what moisture there is by encouraging extensive root growth.
Grow Your Own Lettuce SALAD leaves can suffer in warm, dry weather, whether wilting in the hot sun or bolting (running to seed) prematurely, so there are a few measures to take to keep them at their tasty best. If it's hot, sow seeds in the shade, as scorching weather reduces germination rates, and choose a semi-shaded spot so the plant has relief from the sun at some part of the day. Keep salad leaves well watered, adding compost to retain moisture before planting, and keep slugs at bay with either slug rings or by picking them off in the evening or after rain, when they are most likely to strike. To help prevent bolting, mulch around plants and water during dry weather. Remove any plants that have bolted as the leaves will taste bitter and pinch out any flowers that you see developing. Grey mould or botrytis may be a problem in cold, damp summers. Increase the spacing between plants to reduce the problem and remove any infected material immediately.
3 ways to ... Work with shade
9. Establishing new plants in borders during dry times can be difficult. Instead, pot them into slightly bigger pots and keep well watered and fed in light shade until the autumn planting season arrives. 10. Early summer perennials, irises for example, will survive on moisture left in the soil from winter. Give late summer perennials such as phlox one good watering in the summer as plants begin to flower, which should be enough. In the longer term, consider planting drought-resistant species in your borders such as grasses, Mediterranean type shrubs such as thymes or phlomis, or sedums and other plants with spiky or succulent leaves.

Make the most of leaf colour in shade. Heuchera, ferns, euonymus and hosta will all provide green, yellow and red hues to brighten up a shady area.

Use shadetolerant climbers such as Hydrangea petiolaris, Clematis montana and Lonicera japonica to create interest on a north-facing wall or fence.
CONSERVATION: Save your rain-water to use on the garden

If you want to grow plants under trees, add plenty of organic matter around the planting area in autumn and sprinkle a balanced fertiliser around the plants in early spring, applying a mulch in late spring and watering thoroughly during dry spells in summer.
Scheme aims to ease housing shortage in St Helens ST HELENS Council and its partners are bidding for a share of £1.8bn to fund 623 new and affordable homes across the borough. It’s part of the new national Affordable Homes Programme launched earlier this year by the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) which has made the money available across the country to deliver a total of 150,000 affordable homes. However, while welcoming any plan for more affordable housing,
Councillor Andy Bowden, Cabinet Member for Urban Regeneration and Housing warns: “We are facing a housing crisis. While any funding is to be welcomed the previous government allocated £8.9bn over three years for this. This means that the new announcement is a £7.1bn drop in housing investment by government. It is nowhere near enough to tackle problems of people unable to even get on the housing ladder or finding
affordable rented accommodation.” The council has been working with Helena Partnerships and other housing associations to identify housing priorities to deliver more affordable homes and more access for first time buyers through low-cost home ownership options and to provide more bungalow accommodation. If successful, the scheme will be delivered over the next four years. Adds Councillor Bowden: “We
have been working hard with our partners to develop bids which would increase the supply of affordable housing; widen choice; offer housing support; develop proposals which unlock or help private sector investment and proposals to bring empty homes back into use.” Bill Lacey, Head of Growth and New Opportunities at Helena Partnerships, added: “This is an important opportunity to bid for funding that could provide significant numbers of new build
affordable housing within St Helens. “Our offer includes a mix of rented homes and low-cost home ownership properties that would help address some of the barriers that currently prevent people accessing a home of their own. Helena Partnerships is committed to working with St Helens Council to meet the strategic aspirations for housing in St Helens.” An announcement on the bid is expected in July.

House building down on last year
THE underlying value of UK residential construction starts was 31% lower for the three months to May compared with the same period in 2010, according to new data from construction industry analyst Glenigan. Private housing project starts were down 32% while social housing projects fell 28% for the reported period. "The shrinking pool of new social housing work is in stark contrast to the rapid government funded growth seen this time last year, and further retrenchment is expected through the year" says Allan Wilen, economics director, Glenigan. "The 14% drop in gross mortgage lending reported by the Council of Mortgage Lenders. “The fall in private housing project starts highlights developers' reluctance to open up new sites while conditions in the wider housing market remain weak, preferring to build out and secure sales on existing sites." That said, Glenigan is forecasting a modest uplift in project starts during the second half of this year as developers open up new sites in anticipation of a brightening in market conditions during 2012.

T’S a great time to be a first time buyer in Liverpool, with Lovell offering a great opportunity to move into a new home for less. With five exciting developments across the city, all offering a shared equity scheme, buyers could initially purchase a new home from less than £76,458 and pay a deposit of just £5,000. The scheme means you only pay 85% of the asking price upfront, but own 100% of your new home. There’s no interest or rent to pay on the deferred amount, you have 10 years to pay it back and your mortgage payments could start from as little as £547 a month for a two bedroom apartment. Elaine Taylor, regional sales manager for Lovell, said: “Our shared equity scheme gives homebuyers a viable alternative to renting, and means they have an asset to show for their money.” Lovell offers a variety of homes for sale, from contemporary two bedroom apartments to stylish family homes. The mortgage example quote above is for a two bedroom apartment at Kensington Square, Kensington, where Lovell is building a high quality range of homes close to shops and schools. In Garston under the Bridge,

Buying for less
Lovell has created a community of stylish homes at Church Fields, just a stone’s throw from Liverpool South Parkway Station. Three bedroom homes here could be yours from as little as £106,208 with shared equity. Nestled between the communities of Childwall and Gateacre, the Oaks is ideal for first time buyers and
families. Spacious interiors and quality fixtures and fittings come at an affordable price, with shared equity prices starting at £113,008 for a three bedroom semi-detached. The Woodlee Green development, off Lee Hall Road, is already a wellestablished community and it’s the last chance to buy there, as just a handful of three bedroom houses
remain for sale. Shared equity prices start from just £104,125. Nearby, The Poplars has a range of two bedroom bungalows which are perfect for downsizers or first time buyers. Full prices start from just £125,950. ● For more information visit www.lovell.co.uk/newhomes or call 0151 427 8098 for details.
STYLISH: Heathfields, Tarporley, is Stewart Milne Homes' flagship development
Sell up in just five days!
T
HIS month Stewart Milne Homes has launched a specially tailored seasonal purchase package at its Heathfields development in Tarporley, offering the chance to be sold up and settled in a new home in time for summer. The package offers a fast-track sale of an existing property, no selling agent or marketing fees, plus a host of added finishing touches for a fuss-free move. Stewart Milne Homes’ popular five-day sale service is now available. Removing the usual concerns and uncertainties of securing a timely sale at the right price, Sell Your Home in Five Days provides customers with two independent valuations and a guaranteed offer for their existing home within five
working days from the initial consultation. The plan also removes the need for estate agency fees, listings, brochure and marketing costs along with the charges associated with a Home Report and Energy Performance Certificate – saving several thousand pounds. Stewart Milne Homes is also including landscaped gardens and a choice of flooring for each new home purchased during June, allowing buyers to move straight in – hassle-free – and start the summer in style. Located in the soughtafter country village of Tarporley, less than 25 miles from Liverpool city centre, Heathfields presents a distinctive selection of family homes in a choice of bespoke, locally-inspired
styles. Ranging from three and four bedroom semidetached homes to six bedroom mansion-style houses, each property combines period Georgian architecture and traditional Cheshire brickwork with stylish interiors designed with the modern family in mind. Prices start from £297,950 for a three bedroom semidetached home. There are a number of complimentary extras on offer this June to suit the needs of each and every individual, plus a host of alternative purchase plans to enable more homebuyers to get moving. ● For details, contact the marketing suite on 0845 075 8213, open Thursday to Monday from 10am to 5pm.
