Don't be put off by the thought of tinsel & turkey! - November 02

Ok so it really is just weeks rather than months now before we tuck into the turkey and all the trimmings, and as such the thought of moving house is likely to have been put firmly on the back burner until the New Year right? Wrong says Portford Homes!

To all those speculative buyers out there who are sitting firmly on their hands and choosing to now wait for 2008, Portford Homes has this message for you: 'It is not too late to move and we have a number of homes at our Ingleton Mews development in Barnsley that are ready to move into now," says David Mackintosh, Sales and Marketing Director for Portford Homes.

If you are currently looking to sell your existing property and want to be in a new home before Christmas then Portford Homes' Home Exchange scheme can help you buy the best Christmas present ever! Recent statistics have revealed that the average house takes 18.5 weeks to sell but, if you buy a home at Portford Homes' Ingleton Mews development in Barnsley, you could have a guaranteed cash buyer within weeks.

Explains David Mackintosh: "Home Exchange is a great way for purchasers to sell their existing home, quickly. It takes the stress out of buying a new home and allows the purchaser to secure their dream property, rather than waiting for their existing home to sell. It also takes away the worry of being part of a complicated chain and the expense of estate agent's fees"
The Illingworth townhouse is one of the homes at Ingleton Mews which is ready to move into for Christmas and as with all of the homes at this popular development, it has been designed with buyers needs in mind.
"There is no doubt the way we live has changed over time. We work shifts, we graze rather than sit down to full family meals and many of us work from home as part of our flexible approach to living," continues David Mackintosh.

Portford Homes has recognised this and by listening to its customers knows that flexible living space is vitally important for families today. Laid out over three floors, Portford Homes' stylish townhouses at Ingleton Mews will open buyers' eyes to a new way of living and offer a plethora of living options.
"By building up rather than out we offer a selection of townhouses with space across three floors rather than the traditional two-storey buildings many are used to. Choosing a townhouse is a sensible move as the property can change as a family's requirements evolve."

At Ingleton Mews Portford Homes have townhouses for sale from just £169,950 and with only a limited number of homes remaining in the current phase, purchasers are being urged to visit now before the phase sells out.

Along with Home Exchange, Portford Homes is also currently offering significant price reductions for buyers looking to move before the end of the year. For more information about Ingleton Mews call Portford Homes (open daily 10am to 5pm) on 01226 299815 or log onto www.portford.co.uk.
