Housebuilder Taylor Wimpey Manchester has doubled the reward it offers under its Recommend a Friend scheme at The Orchard in Blackburn.
Previously under the scheme, when someone completed a purchase of a new home at the Laburnum Road development and then recommended a friend who also bought a new home there, both parties received £500 from the housebuilder.
Now Taylor Wimpey has increased the reward to £1,000 each and has also extended the scheme. Anyone who makes a registered enquiry about The Orchard and who then recommends someone else who buys a property there is now eligible to take advantage of the Recommend a Friend scheme. They don’t have to have bought a property themselves.
Regional sales and marketing director Anthony Mansfield explained the move: “News about The Orchard spread quickly by word of mouth once the development launched. It is at the heart of a very close knit community where many people take decisions on the recommendation of friends.
“Taylor Wimpey’s Recommend a Friend scheme is successful at many other Taylor Wimpey Manchester developments but, with such a strong community existing in the Little Harwood area, The Orchard is the perfect place to introduce a new, improved version of the scheme.”
The Orchard consists of a contemporary mix of apartments, mews and townhouses. Two, three, four, five and six bedroom properties are available. Prices start at just £47,497.
Recommend a Friend is one of a number of different schemes currently being offered at The Orchard. Part exchange is available for a limited period on a select number of properties, while a number of homes are also being offered as part of the English Partnerships first time buyer initiative, which helps first time buyers who would otherwise be unable to afford their own home.
The fantastic range of properties, quiet residential surroundings and close proximity to Blackburn town centre makes The Orchard a highly appealing proposition for would-be housebuyers. The development’s location in Little Harwood provides the perfect location for families, young couples and professionals alike.
