WITH the housing market continuing to struggle and property sales flat, more home-owners are considering renting out their home because they cannot find a buyer. But there is evidence, too, that people inheriting property after bereavement are preferring to rent, rather than sell, for the same reason. Over the coming year more and more of these ‘reluctant’ and ‘accidental’ landlords could find themselves taking on tenants for the first time, indeed recent research suggests one in three home owners are now considering this as an option. But local lettings specialist, Belvoir, is warning anyone new to residential lettings to be aware of the pitfalls, including strict regulatory requirements, insurance considerations and tenant reference and checking procedures. Paul Rice, who runs the Belvoir office in Liverpool city centre, says: “We are seeing an emerging trend in the market, with many home owners becoming landlords for a variety of different reasons. “Some do not want to sell their property until the market recovers. Others need to keep a house occupied and maintained because it is lying empty. “But becoming a landlord, almost overnight, is quite a daunting task and that’s why we urge people to seek out initial free and impartial, independent advice before attempting to go it alone.” In addition to strict regulations covering compulsory gas, electrical and fire safety checks there are many other specialist rules to consider. For instance, if a property is rented to three or more unrelated tenants, a HMO (Houses in Multiple Occupation) licence may be required. Rules vary from one council area to another. If you are letting out a property you will also need to take out specialist landlord insurance, which is different to household insurance cover. “It can be a minefield for the new and inexperienced landlord,” says Paul. “It is important to consider what kind of tenant you want to attract, to ensure the right ‘fit’ with the property. Are you targeting families, young couples, single dwellers, or retirees? “If furnished, you will need to carry out a full inventory check before anyone moves in, as well as extensive credit checks and tenant referencing.” “At Belvoir we offer a full end-to-end managed lettings service for both landlords and tenants, for any type of property, furnished or unfurnished. “The first step for anyone considering letting out their own home for the first time, is to go through all of the options open to them,” adds Paul. Belvoir predicts that property rents will increase between 5 and 10% throughout 2011 and the number of private landlords in the UK will increase by a further 50% in the next few years.

STAFF at David Wilson Homes North West are celebrating after enjoying sales success in the past year. It comes despite a mixed national picture and, they say,
PLEASED AS PUNCH: Stephen Harper with Jacqui Gutteridge, Miller Homes advisor
proves that demand for quality new homes in the area remains strong. The Warrington-based housebuilder legally completed more than 200 properties, worth more than £35 million in the final six months of the year – hitting its own internal targets. “We are proud of our reputation for building high quality homes in great locations throughout the region which has enabled us to perform strongly despite the uncertainty about the wider economy at the moment,” says Steve Jackson, sales director at David Wilson Homes North West. “It is clear that plenty of customers think now is a great time to take their next step on the property ladder. “Prices are lower than they were in 2007 and interest rates are low too which means rock bottom mortgage repayments.” He adds: “It’s a great result for the last six months and speaks volumes about the talent and commitment of our team here in the North West. We’re hoping for continued success and many more satisfied customers in 2011.” Homes currently available from David Wilson Homes North West in the Liverpool and the surrounding area include St John’s Place, a new development comprising a collection of two and three bedroom homes. Properties currently available in Widnes include Ascot Gardens, a development of four and five bedroom homes. For further information call the sales team on 0844 5566155 or visit www.dwh.co.uk

STEPHEN Harper is full of praise for Miller Homes after moving into his new Bridgewater Park apartment in Netherley – just five weeks after popping in to its marketing suite. The new home owner, who lived less than a mile from the development, had first visited the development a couple of years ago to look at the houses. But at the time he had to leave broken hearted, unable to afford a property there. Stephen says, however: “I drove past the development again a couple of months ago and saw the signs promoting the HomeBuy Direct scheme. “I decided to check it out and called in to find out more. Jacqui, the Sales
ADVISOR: Paul Rice of lettings specialist Belvoir
Adviser, talked me through the scheme and the figures looked good so I decided to apply.” The HomeBuy Direct (HBD) process enables those who qualify to pay a minimum of 70% of their new home now. The balance of the price is provided in the form of an equity loan, co-funded by the government and Miller Homes. This equity loan is interest free for the first five years and capped after then. Stephen bought a two-bed apartment on a corner plot. Since moving in, he has been loving spending time in his new home. Stephen says: “My favourite room is the kitchen. It’s a really nice set up, with all the appliances I need and good space for working, whether I am preparing a TV dinner for one or cooking a meal for my mates. “It’s also great for nipping into Liverpool for a night out.” He adds: “The service I received was first class.” So full marks to Miller Homes and best wishes to Stephen in his new first home. ◆ Fore more details visit the Bridgewater Park Marketing Suite on Brownbill Bank, Netherley, L27 7AE.

My First
HOME
Red hot – and The radiator is now making a style statement all of its own. Gabrielle Fagan feels the heat
Esther McVey, Conservative MP Where was the family home you grew up in, what was it like and what is your clearest memory of it? Stoneycroft Crescent Liverpool 13. This is the house I remember as our first family home. It’s a semi detached in West Derby and I drove past it only a few months ago to take a quick peek. My mum and dad were young and funky and the house fitted the look and feel of a young funky couple of the seventies, swirly wallpaper – oranges and greens if I recall – with a fabulous clashing purple twist carpet. It was open plan too with wooden folding white doors and when the doors were open, my dad would chase me round and round in circles out of the living room into the hall and back around again, fit to drop and squealing with delight when almost caught! The back garden was wonderful too. The old gentleman who’d owned the house before us couldn’t keep up with cutting the grass so he’d bought a donkey to chew it away. There was a giant (well to a four-year old) baking apple tree in the corner which I loved to climb and in the summer pick all the apples off. Where was the first house you bought yourself and what did it cost? A one bedroom flat at the top of a Georgian House in Shoreditch, London £61,500. It was run down at the time on the edges of the city – it’s now a hub for the urban trendies! There were lots of up and coming artists and designers there including Alexander McQueen and Mathew Williamson. What made you want to buy it? Rents were so expensive in London that I decided to buy. I then worked double shifts at a restaurant in Covent Garden to enable me to cover the bills. What are the most important features you look for when buying a house? Location for sure, and added to that I want a place that I feel at home in. Somewhere that feels calm and secure. I want a place I feel happy being in, so I like there to be shops nearby and a park if possible. Are you a DIY trier or do you leave it to the experts? I’m happy to have a go at what I can do, but I leave the rest to those who are properly qualified. What's the one thing you love most about your current house? The kitchen and den area. It’s spacious, cosy, opens up onto the garden and has under floor heating which I adore. It’s also a very eco friendly house, I have a rain harvester and solar panels that heat the water. I haven’t had water heating on for more than three years. BY JANET TANSLEY

ADIATORS, once the ugly ducklings of the home and usually ignored unless they didn’t work, have undergone a transformation. “Radiators used to be the forgotten element of interior design and there was no alternative to the standard, white panels that dominated our homes, but that’s no longer true,” says Barbara Payne, head of product development at Bisque, which specialises in the funky through to the functional. Company founder Geoffrey Ward formed the company in 1979 after displaying a fancy, but damaged, radiator he’d picked up on holiday in Europe in his shop window. Within weeks, to his astonishment, he was being inundated with people wanting to buy it. “Bisque began importing sculptural radiators from Switzerland, which combined ‘wow’ factor and performance and found itself at the cutting edge of a whole new market.” Textured slabs, coils, ladders, poles, mirrored radiators, and even wooden radiators are just a few of the choices offered by today’s radiator companies. And radiators are no longer only made in metal, points out Marcus Orchard, managing director of The Radiator Company. “Different materials being used, including reconstituted stone and granite as well as ceramics and new finishes, are being applied to metal to create stunning effects.” So if you still have clunky, clanging radiators, surely it’s time you joined the radiator revolution.
Designer Divas
The cost of sculptural radiators may make you go hot under the collar, but will speak volumes about your taste and design awareness. “Radiators often occupy prime locations in rooms so it’s
surprising that they’re often overlooked as potential elements to enhance or complement a style,” says Orchard. “You should consider the design of furniture you will be putting in the room and how the radiator will complement it. “They can have the impact of a piece of art and you may want them to be a feature, or simply want one to be an under-stated, functional but handsome addition to a space.” Red hot rads: A Metacrylic radiator, from £2,068.65 from The Radiator Company, with its black box frame, wouldn’t look out of place in an up-market art gallery. A Hose radiator, from £941 from MHS Radiators, is really unusual. It’s made from more than 20 metres of double-lined steel braided hose which is rolled over a polished stainless steel hook. Make a talking point with a Leaf electric radiator, from £2,398 from Bisque, made from laminated wood. It has a radio-controlled programmer for temperature and operating times.
Turn up the heat
Colour’s taken rooms by storm, and there’s no reason why radiators can’t follow the trend. Some companies offer a bespoke colour finish service for radiators so they match walls and furnishings and blend seamlessly into a scheme, while others have a
COOL COLOUR: This page, from top: Hose radiator, from £941, from MHS Radiators; Leaf electric radiator, from £2,398 from Bisque; Bisque’s classic radiator, from £490.80 in more than 2000 colours
Alternatively, La Scala, from £2,262 from Bisque, is eye-catching with its geometric zigzag shape and has a dazzling colour choice including a zingy lime green.
Shapely additions
kaleidoscope of colour choices for individual models. “Colour remains a strong feature for the designer market, with traditional, conservative colours still the main choice,” says Orchard. “Mottled copper and textured dark greys are a favourite for more conventional, period settings, but we’re seeing requests for more dynamic colours and special finishes.” If you’re stuck with existing radiators, give them a makeover. Hammerite’s Radiator Paint costs from £9.99 for 500ml. It’s possible to match a radiator to walls if you paint it with emulsion and then apply International Radiator Clearcoat, which prevents emulsion cracking when put under stress from the radiator heating up and cooling down. It costs from £9.49 for 500ml. Red hot rads: If all that DIY is just too tiresome, and you want to make impact with colour and shape, look no further than a slim, horizontal Tif radiator, from £831.90 from The Radiator Company. It’s available in 22 shades including a punchy red.
If you’re after a sleek, steely, slightly industrialised look, there’s plenty to satisfy you both from specialised companies and on the high street. Choose your shape to suit your space, advises Orchard. “Use tall, narrow radiators to maximise a small space. In most cases, double or even triple options are available to increase output without using up more room. “If you have more space, long, low radiators look sleek whilst tall, vertical options provide a stronger, visual statement.” Red hot rads: B&Q’s range has real ’va-va-voom’ appeal. An Accuro-Korle Focus radiator is a vertical pole of brushed stainless steel, £699, while a Lara chrome-plated radiator, £499, resembles an African warrior’s shield. Frontline Bathrooms’ range includes a boldly curved Anthracite Pajero Designer Radiator, from £385. An Arigato, £591 from MHS radiators, made from solid tubular pipes, can be hung vertically or horizontally.
Bathing Beauties
Radiators are a must in bathrooms and it’s standard to have heated towel rails, but nowadays these can come in all shapes and sizes. Red hot rads: A steel towel rail, the Archibald, £578.40, which mimics the shape of three coat hangers, was the clever idea of Italian designer Leo Salzedo, who created it for Bisque. “I called it Archibald because I think of it as an English butler helping with the laundry,” he says. Drummonds has a new dual-fuel towel warmer/radiator, made from brass. When the heating’s off, the towel warmer switches over to electricity. Its

Old school style
Those heavy cast iron Victorian-style radiators might be regarded as metal dinosaurs by those looking for something sleek and skinny, but they’re hugely popular with vintage fans and definitely add instant character to a room. Many companies offer modern versions of these old classics or originals can be found in reclamation and salvage yards, but make sure they’ve been reconditioned before you buy as they can have cracks that aren’t visible.

Ice gold in the quarter by JANET TANSLEY
W
ITH a name like Ice Interiors, Georgina Ward might have expected a cool reception when she opened her new store in Liverpool. But the interiors guru has received such a warm welcome since her arrival in the city’s new Home Quarter, that she is planning to make her professional move here personal too. Georgina, 40, says: “Setting up home here? That’s definitely something I will be doing. “For one reason, because I am very committed and in the early stages of business you have to be there more. “And, not least, because I really like Liverpool. “The city has a warm and friendly feeling and the people are friendly too. In a supermarket people chat, it’s lovely. Liverpool already feels like home.” And Georgina is not short of praise for Liverpool’s talent for knowing what looks good. “Liverpool people have an eye for style–- it’s one of the reasons I wanted to come here. Looking at the people, they way they dress, you can tell they make an effort. “And why should that style flair stop at clothes?” The designer started up Ice Interiors in Barnsley, before taking premises in Redbrick Mill in Leeds eight years ago – Redbrick is the company who, together with Grosvenor, is behind The Home Quarter Development in Liverpool One. Redbrick’s approach makes it possible for large designer stores and individuals to join together to
offer a destination for design led interiors, furniture and home accessories.
Big names in the quarter

It’s great when you insulate, says Craig BUILDER and Big Brother victor Craig Phillips is helping to launch a new campaign to help homeowners save money. To help beat the VAT increase blues, and with rising utility costs and higher heating bills as a result of harsh winter conditions, Craig is supporting one of the biggest ever bids to ensure everyone has their loft insulated properly. Craig says: “I can confidently say that it pays to install the right loft insulation.
“Anything that saves people money and helps the environment is not to be missed. With a small investment in your home’s heating future, you’ll see a marked difference in your heating bills.” Craig, who runs the largest construction academy in the North West, has filmed more than 850 national DIY shows and has renovated more than 30 properties, has teamed up with Superglass Insulation to launch Superdad.
For £5 per roll of loft insulation, as opposed to standard retail prices of up to £30 a roll, it gives people to chance to insulate their loft for around £60 rather than £300. Superdad highlights that the right loft insulation saves you money, reduces the energy you use and your carbon footprint, and makes your home more comfortable: signs of a poorly insulated home are cold walls and floors, uneven heating levels and mould on walls.
Working in conjunction with SSE, this CERT (Carbon Emissions Reduction Target) funded DIY initiative allows consumers access to CERT funding and therefore affordable loft insulation only available from a nationwide network of independent builders’ merchants. ◆ Visit the Superdad website at www. superdadonline.co.uk

We’re going back to the old school
Maverick TV garden designer Diarmuid Gavin predicts new trends and reveals his joy at the return to more traditional styles with eco-awareness in mind
O
NCE renowned for his innovative modernist designs, Diarmuid Gavin says trends are increasingly heading towards a return to traditional gardens where the plants are the stars. He’s pleased that the age of shiny stainless steel, bright blue fences and decking once embraced by TV shows has ended. Having just launched the Ideal Home Show’s first garden design competition to celebrate the best examples of sustainable practice in garden design and support young and emerging UK students in the field, he’s expecting a rush of eco-awareness. “There will be a generation of students who grew up in a time when gardening was manic on television. I’m expecting big eco-awareness. That generation will know how important it is in terms of sourcing materials, saving water and making compost. “I would hope for a refinement of all the madder ideas that have been around for years. The wheel is turning back to the craft of gardening. “ People’s first love is plants, understanding the soil and the environment. That’s the very trendy thing, which is healthy.” Fruit and vegetable growing will continue this year and in the longer-term future, he predicts. “The big trend will remain ‘grow-it-yourself ’. Companies will come out with kit forms of raised beds made from wood, compost mixes and seed mixes, along with manuals on how to grow basic vegetables to educate your children and feed your family. “In terms of materials and planting schemes, it’s back to the style of garden we remember from our childhood. The grander, more old-fashioned style (and) colour in terms of herbaceous plants and a kind of appreciation of tradition. “A lot of natural stone will be used and salvage material will be appreciated. There will be less concrete.”
These days, Gavin agrees he is commissioned to design much more traditional gardens in general. “People want to be comforted and indulged. They want to see the qualities of tradition for which Britain is well known.” But for people who have smaller town gardens and not much time for maintenance, minimalist will always be in vogue, he says, while the popularity of low-maintenance plants is surging. “The arrival of ornamental plants such as grasses, mass planting of lavender and Buxus sempervirens in a more contemporary way works very well, so keep it simple. For most gardens the palette of plants is relatively limited because you have to acknowledge how people live. “There will be more evergreens and people will appreciate grasses like carex. If you planted bronze carex a few years ago, people thought you were planting something that was dead. “Now there’s a more naturalistic feel through an appreciation of foliage and different hues, supplemented with bulbs. It’s uncomplicated but wonderful.”
He is currently having his garden in Co. Wicklow completely refurbished and says it will all centre on herbaceous borders, with a folly at the end. After two harsh winters gardeners will need to reconsider which species they grow. “Dicksonias (tree ferns) have taken a bashing. We used to use Cordyline australis everywhere but many have been killed off, as have lots of hebes. We have to decide whether our ambition should be to continue to go for the exotic if we don’t live in a protected area. “Perennials are the basis for the English cottage garden. Now with Monty Don coming back to Gardeners’ World, I think they have a very promising future.” ◆ Diarmuid Gavin is the ‘ideal gardens’ ambassador at the Ideal Home Show, sponsored by Hydropool, at London’s Earls Court, March 11-27.

3 ways to ... Perk up an old flower border
1
Dig up any plants you want to keep, potting them temporarily in compost and labelling them carefully. Lift and divide overgrown clumps which will benefit from being split and re-planted.
2
Weed the area then add a dense layer of well-rotted organic matter over the border and fork it in well.
3
Wait a couple of weeks before replanting to see if any weeds re-emerge and if so, dig them out. The time delay will also allow for air pockets in the soil to settle.

Splash out on a Turkish delight – and get ready for ski season
Best of the bunch Snowdrop (Galanthus) THEY are one of the most welcome winter sights, their white bell-shaped flowers brightening up a dull border or emerging in large drifts in woodland areas and there are many varieties for beds, borders and containers. Some, including G. elwesii, produce a wonderful scent of honey, while G. nivalis, ‘S. Arnott’, bears larger than average flowers and grows to 10ins
If you want a double form, go for ‘Flore Pleno’ with its globular flowers – shown to greatest advantage at the edge of paths or the base of walls. They thrive in moist soil and light shade and, depending on the species you choose, flower from January to March. Mature clumps need dividing after flowering and then replanting immediately.
What to do this week
● Don’t sow anything outdoors until the soil temperature has remained above 7C (45F) for a week. Use a soil thermometer to test the soil temperature. ● Put cloches in position to warm the soil for early sowings of vegetables in March. ● Sow under glass slow maturing bedding plants such as African marigolds, petunias and lobelia. ● Top dress pot plants which are not to be
re-potted with fresh compost. ● Soil on the vegetable plot which has been enriched in autumn can now be treated by applying lime. ● Buy celery seeds for sowing under glass in March or early April. ● Plan your summer bedding scheme so that seed orders can be made as soon as possible. ● Order herbaceous perennials from nursery catalogues for delivery and planting in spring. ● Clear up debris which might be hiding slugs and snails.
● Continue to firm in plants which have been lifted by frost or wind rock. ● If heavy frosts or cold winds are predicted, provide added protection to half hardy and slightly tender perennials using cloches, netting, horticultural fleece, dead bracken, straw and even old woollens. You can remove them once the danger of frost has passed. ● Complete winter digging if weather permits. ● Bend leaves over cauliflowers to help protect the developing curds.
Good enough to eat Rejuvenate mint IF YOU have straggly old clumps of mint in the garden now’s the time to dig up some of it and separate out the healthiestlooking parts. Shake off most of the soil so that you can see sections of thick, fleshy root 2.5-5cm (1-2in) and pot up the cuttings in multi-purpose compost. Stand it on a windowsill indoors
and water it regularly. Before long a new crop of fresh shoots will appear – which you will be able to plant in the garden later on. As mint is generally invasive, plant it in either pots or buckets with holes in them to stop it taking over and smothering other herbs.
TURKISH property specialists Oceanwide Properties are giving investors the chance to buy a number of off-plan detached villas in the village of Seki, near Fethiye, on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey. Each villa is detached and boasts a minimum of 680 square metres of floor space with views of nearby mountains. One of the major selling points of these villas is the fact they are just 12km from the fabulous brand new Seki Ski Resort. Each one will be built to a high specification with three well-proportioned bedrooms as well as en-suite facilities to the master bedroom including a Jacuzzi bath, a spacious lounge complete with a feature fireplace and a fitted kitchen.
Air conditioning, solar panels and a fully operational heating system are also installed. Outside will be a private heated pool, a walled garden with a brick-built barbecue and private off-road parking. Just opened, Seki Ski should attract a high number of ski enthusiasts because of its easy accessibility and virgin ski runs. At 2,780m above sea level on the mountain of Erendagi, part of the mountain range Toroslar, it has one slope for skiing and two for snow boarding. There are experienced instructors available to give lessons and a cable car takes skiers to the slopes. Due to open soon is a fantastic hotel, with eight rooms, and in addition, there is a hire shop for
equipment and a restaurant with seating for 100 customers. A brand new ground station with welcoming café, medical centre and ticket office has also opened. Suleyman Akbay of Oceanwide Properties, said: “With the opening of the ski resort, we anticipate this region increasing in popularity. “Those investing now may feel the benefits of the capital growth and rental possibilities. Locally homes have been increasing on average over the last couple of years by anything from 7 to 20%. “A rental return on a three bedroom detached in the ski season should be around £1,200 per week.” ◆ Prices start at £165,000.

Renting out is still a moneyspinner
LANDLORDS can still expect to earn more than £3,200 a year on each home which is tenanted, says a new survey. This call comes despite private sector rents falling in December, and rent arrears surging to £276 million – the highest figure for a year. LSL Property Services says an investor buying into the market today can expect to earn £8,200 a year in rent, while the capital value of their home could fall by around £4,950. That leaves a ‘paper’ profit of £3,259 – although landlords who are repaying a mortgage won’t necessarily see it as cash in their bank account. LSL, a nationwide agency incorporating brands Your Move and Reeds Rains, believes that bricks and mortar remain a sound investment despite rents falling 1.2% to an average £684 per month in December. This was the first fall recorded since January 2010. David Newnes, LSL estate agency managing director, says: “Landlords have seen an end to the post-crunch bounce-back in annual returns, and must view their portfolios as long-term investments.
“As months of strong house price inflation fall by the wayside, the prospects for short-term gains are slender. “But with rents remaining historically very high and tenant demand set to increase, buy-to-let provides very good investment prospects over the long-term. “This year, added problems of Arctic weather temporarily dampened demand, deterring many renters from hitting the streets and viewing properties. “But the recent slowdown in rents is down to landlords’ pricing strategies. Landlords offering properties during the holiday season often lower the asking rent to avoid a costly void period. “If a landlord cuts the rental price by 5% to fill a property immediately, they can save £275 over the year rather than seeing their property vacant for the duration of the month. “Nevertheless, with the supply of mortgage finance to both first-time buyers and would-be landlords still constrained, we are likely to see rents restart their upwards march before the spring.”

T Dibbin Brook in Bromborough there is a fantastic range of homes perfect for growing families in search of extra space. And if you’ve got a property to sell, Redrow will help ease your transition from old to new with its Mastermove service. This weekend, Redrow Homes is holding a special Mastermove workshop. Today and tomorrow, house-hunters will be able to speak to professionals about making their next move on the property ladder. “At Redrow we want to make moving home as simple, straightforward and as enjoyable as possible. Many of the people who visit Dibbin Brook are impressed by the high quality of our homes, but are worried about selling their old property to free up cash to enable them to move,” explained Elaine Mounsey, sales manager for Redrow Homes (North West). “With our Mastermove service we can support customers through that process by working with local estate agents to sell their existing property. We’ll monitor the agent’s activities and progress and even pay their fees. Our Mastermove weekend will offer a one stop shop where visitors will be able to look around our show homes and talk to advisers about how to sell their

OMEBUYERS struggling to raise a deposit could find the answer to their problem at Windmill Hill in Wirral, where Prospect Homes has been awarded funding for the Government’s Homebuy Direct shared-equity initiative. Homebuy Direct is designed to provide a stepping stone into home ownership for people who cannot afford to buy a property on the open market in their local area. Under the terms of the scheme, the homebuyer pays a minimum of 70% of the full purchase price, with the remaining percentage paid by two
equity loans provided in equal measures by the housebuilder and a government agency. Those loans are interest-free for the first five years, while the purchaser has 100% title to the home and can sell it on the open market without restriction. Homebuy Direct means a spacious three bedroomed detached property at Windmill Hill could be purchased for as little as £100,065. Sales negotiator Ron Ramsey said: “Homebuy Direct is a superb means of combining low-cost home ownership with flexibility for the purchaser. “The equity loans are repaid when the property is sold on, by
passing on a percentage of the sale’s proceeds to the housebuilder and the government agency.” Homebuy Direct is now available on selected plots within the final phase of 24 homes which have just been released at Windmill Hill. The development features a range of three and four bedroomed detached homes designed to an impressive specification. All properties include fully fitted kitchen, cloakroom and en-suite to the master bedroom. Many homes also feature a garage, utility and separate dining room. Without Homebuy Direct prices start from £142,950 for a three
bedroomed property and £164,950 for a four bedroom property. More high specification homes will soon be available a short walk from Windmill Hill at Prospect Homes’ Clarence Park development, where the forthcoming launch will release a choice of two and three bedroomed properties to suit a variety of budgets and preferences. Occupying a secluded cul-de-sac, Clarence Park features 23 homes in total, each providing a spacious yet easy-to-manage format. Prospective purchasers can obtain further information and register their interest at the Windmill Hill sales centre.
Now you can afford a new home at Windmill Hill With the government’s Homebuy Direct Scheme you can own 100% of a Windmill Hill home but pay just 70% of its price now. That means as little as £100,065 for a three bedroom property*

F you’re a househunter trying to overcome the home-buying hurdles, fed up of being told ‘you can’t,’ then you should pay a visit to Taylor Wimpey North West’s Speakman Gardens development in Prescot, where the house builder is armed with a host of schemes to get you moving. With a fantastic collection of homes, ranging from two bedroom apartments to three and four bedroom townhouses and detached homes, Speakman Gardens has something for everyone. And those with a small deposit needn’t worry, either, as the housebuilder’s Deposit Match and
Easystart schemes are designed to offer the perfect solution to home ownership problems. If you’re struggling to scrape together a big deposit and feel destined to be stuck in the rental rut forever, you may be surprised to find there’s a solution waiting for you at Speakman Gardens. Deposit Match is a scheme that boosts the buying power of first time buyers and helps them secure a more competitive mortgage rate. Through the scheme, Taylor Wimpey will match your deposit, up to 10% of the purchase price, via an interest free loan over 10 years. If you’ve only got a 5% deposit

saved, then the Easystart shared equity scheme could make you a home owner sooner than you think. Under the scheme homebuyers simply pay a 5% deposit to secure the property, and pay 80% of the purchase price via their prearranged mortgage. Taylor Wimpey then loans the purchaser the remaining amount for up to 10 years with no rent or interest payable. The scheme is flexible, allowing purchasers to repay the outstanding amount early or make one-off payments up to three times during the 10-year period. These schemes are available on a number of homes at Speakman
Gardens. A two bedroom Tamar apartment, currently on the market for £93,500, can be snapped up for £79,500 using the Easystart scheme – all you need is a deposit of £4,675! If you’d like more space, a three bedroom Bancroft townhouse, on the market for £151,950, can be yours for £129,158 through the scheme. There’s also a collection of four bedroom detached homes, ideal for families or those looking for plenty of space, from £209,950. ● Visit the marketing suite, open 11am- 5.30pm Thurs-Mon, call 0845 071 8832 or log onto www.taylor wimpey.co.uk/newhomes/North West/Speakman Gardens/
