TAKE YOUR FIRST STEP ON THE PROPERTY LADDER WITH WESTON HOMES’

First-time SecureBuy

If you’re a first-time buyer looking to get on the property ladder, we’re here to help! Our unique First-time SecureBuy scheme makes buying a new home off-plan possible.

Our First-time SecureBuy scheme gives you the opportunity to secure the property of your choice, at today’s price, for just a £500 reservation fee. Should the value of the property increase, you will only pay the price given the day you secured your property. Not only does this scheme offer a secure reservation, it only requires a 5% deposit. Six months before completion, you can apply for a mortgage.

How does it work?

If you’re confident you can manage a mortgage but can’t secure a property off-plan, then First-time SecureBuy could be the answer.

The First-time SecureBuy scheme enables first-time buyers the opportunity to secure a new home off-plan for just a £500 reservation fee and a 5% deposit.

Weston Homes will offer a conditional exchange with a complete refund option if circumstances change, subject to terms and conditions.
