VICKERY COURT
These new properties are helping people take that crucial first step on the property ladder
Now an innovative scheme has made it easier to get the keys to a new home in Poundbury . Currently under construction the Vickery Court development of seven , two-bedroom apartments with views over Hamslade Green is now available under the Discount to Open Market scheme . All properties also offer an allocated parking space , making this a rare opportunity to purchase an affordable home in Poundbury . The scheme dictates that the properties are to be sold at 30 % less
than the market value with no hidden catch such as an equity loan or shared ownership . The only stipulation is that the properties are to be owner occupied and not available as a buy-to-let investment . To be eligible for the scheme , applicants must register with the West Dorset District Council ' s Housing List and have a combined household income below £ 60,000 per annum . Priority will be given to applicants with a combined household income below £ 45,000 per annum . The Vickery Court development is due for completion in March 2017 .
The difference between this and other government starter schemes is that the homes will remain discounted in perpetuity for future generations to benefit from . Managing Director of ZeroC , Kim Slowe said : " Providing housing of this kind opens up opportunities for a lot of people who otherwise would only be able to rent ."
