Keep believing says Portford Homes - June 27

Portford Homes, the Leeds-based house builder, is a firm believer that the property market will overcome the current difficulties if everyone plays their part and keeps believing.

Says David Mackintosh, Sales and Marketing Director at Portford Homes: “We are in a property market where properties are tougher to sell and where buyers confidence is at an all time low. However, with the range of properties currently available across our developments in Yorkshire and our choice of easy moving incentives our message to buyers is quite simple….it is still possible to find your dream home and get moving!


“Our message is particularly pertinent for those buyers who have a home to sell. We appreciate just how stiff the competition is from other vendors and so we are offering our buyers a way to counteract this with our Home Exchange scheme.” 


The Portford Home Exchange scheme allows you to avoid certain costs and worries, such as estate agent fees, but also means that Portford Homes will be the top and the bottom of the chain, so unless you decide not to go ahead with the purchase of your new home, you will not lose it. It couldn’t be more straightforward!


Home Exchange enables buyers to move quickly, as there is no chain. It can also help save you money too – because there are no estate agent’s fees to be paid by you. In addition, Portford Homes will provide the Home Information Pack (HIPs) now being required to market all properties, saving you further cost.


If Portford Homes agrees to take your current home as part payment on your new home, the housebuilder will make you an offer based on at least two independent valuations.  Once the purchase price for your existing property has been agreed and subject to survey Portford Homes will proceed to an exchange of contracts within 28 days and your dream home will then become a reality.
Portford Homes has a distinctive choice of homes available at Cypress Heights and Ingleton Mews in Barnsley within the price range of £169,950 to £235,000.


Just minutes from Barnsley’s town centre, Cypress Heights and Ingleton Mews enjoy an ideal location. The development benefits from being built within an established residential area with all your day to day requirements close at hand.


Barnsley is fast becoming a 21st Century market town that offers an exciting location for business and a great place to live....it is a modern community providing employment, culture, arts, leisure and retail opportunities. No matter where you are in Barnsley you are no more than ten minutes drive from breathtaking countryside, and Pennine Barnsley is the ideal place to experience the exhilarating fresh air of the outdoors.
