Portford Homes plays cupid - October 26

Portford Homes plays cupid for newly weds

A home-exchange deal from Portford Homes was the perfect wedding gift for Wakefield buyers Jacqui and Neil Richards.
The couple, who were planning an exotic wedding in Cyprus, first wanted to make sure they had secured their dream home at Portford Homes' Chantry Square development in Wakefield.

They had set their hearts on a delightful four-bedroom detached Fyne - but they had to find a buyer for their existing property just a few miles up the road - and time was running out.

Chantry Square's sales consultant, Linda Dearnley said: "When Neil and Jacqui came to see me there was just weeks to go before their big day. The couple really wanted everything with the new house to be sorted so they could go away and enjoy their wedding day without the added pressure of the move hanging over them.

As Neil and Jacqui discovered our home exchange scheme can help to make buying that dream home a reality - we will pull out all the stops to give a quick decision on an existing property and make an unbeatable offer.

"We take away all the hassles of selling your old home. There are no estate agents, chains, extra costs or nailbiting waits for buyers to make their minds up. You buy one of our homes - and we'll buy yours - it couldn't simpler than that."

Jacqui said: "Planning a wedding can be quite stressful without the added pressure of moving house to contend with. Thanks to Portford Homes' super home-exchange deal we were both able to relax more and focus on the wedding plans. What a great wedding present!"

Chantry Square is the ideal location for the newlyweds who both work in the centre of Wakefield for the family business, Booth's Carpets & Furnishings.

Chantry Square offers a choice of new homes including three and four-bedroom townhouses and four-bedroom detached family homes. Located adjacent to the canalside and just minutes from Wakefield's city centre prices start from £227,500. For more information contact Portford Homes on 01924 335861.
