'It’s a very difficult market out there' - Black Country housebuilder offers £10K incentive at open weekends

Kendrick Homes, which has been building in the Midlands since 1880, will give potential buyers £10,000 towards their new home, and up to £2,000 of support towards legal fees at its sites at Ambridge Fields (Inkberrow), Severn Meadows in Upton upon Severn and Cygnets Rest (Drakes Broughton).

The latest support from the business follows the launch of its ‘First Time Buyer’ helpline last month and has been designed to help customers move at a time when finances are tight and people want more certainty before making decisions

Kirsty Darby, head of sales at Kendrick Homes, which is headquartered in Stourbridge, said: “We are not just about bricks and mortar, we’re instead focused on creating thriving communities that fit in with the local character.

“This is reflected in what we are building at Ambridge Fields, Severn Meadows and Cygnets Rest and these two consecutive open weekends will give buyers a first look at the show homes and the chance to benefit from a one-off £10,000 payment if they reserve on Saturday or Sunday.

“It’s a very difficult market out there at the moment and we want to support people with the best advice (through our ‘First Time Buyer’ helpline) and a financial incentive to help ease some of the burden associated with moving home.”

Kirsty added: “We also have Discounted Open Market Value homes coming to the market at Severn Meadows within the next couple of weeks.

“These will be specifically for people who live or work locally, which is an important point for us. We want to give them a realistic route into home ownership in the area.”

The open days will take place on Saturday April 11 and Sunday April 12 and on Saturday April 18 and Sunday April 19.
