A leading housebuilder has hailed the Government-backed NewBuy mortgage product as a huge boost for the industry as one of its customers became the first person in the country to buy a home using the package.
Increasing numbers of buyers are moving away from rural village life and opting for the hustle and bustle of successful city centres. Norwich is just one of those property hotspots, where buyers are snapping up smart, contemporary homes to be close to the action.
Emma Morris and Andrew Durkin have achieved their dreams of property ownership at last thanks to a Government-backed shared equity scheme which finally unlocked the housing market for them - and also showed them the benefits of living in a brand new home.
Bovis Homes are trying to track down the descendants of a Droitwich war hero - because they are planning to name their new development in the town after him.
With the launch today of the Government-backed homebuying assistance scheme NewBuy, leading national housebuilder Bovis Homes has signed up with three major high street lenders - Nationwide, Barclays (Woolwich) and RBS (NatWest) - to support them in getting the 95% mortgage into the marketplace.
The new Government-backed 95% mortgage, which will be launched this month, has been hailed by one major national house builder as: "One of the most significant developments in the housing market for years."
