King’s Wood Gate, Monmouth, Monmouthshire
King’s Wood Gate is a thriving community of beautiful new homes being built by a range of developers including Taylor Wimpey and Barratts.
Capsel work with these developers to sell a proportion of the homes through the Welsh Government’s very popular Homebuy scheme and, following the success of our early phases at King’s Wood Gate, we are delighted to be able to offer a further collection of fourteen, 2 and 3 bedroom houses to buy.
Buying at King’s Wood Gate
Homebuy (also called shared equity) is a scheme that helps people to buy a new home for a fraction of it’s open market value. It is perfect for those people able to obtain a mortgage, but who cannot afford to buy a property outright on the open market.
So how does it work?
Purchasers will need to be able to obtain a mortgage for as little as 50%, up to a max of 70% of the total value of a property, although it depends on what you can afford. We will then loan you the remaining percentage to buy the property.
Here’s the simple maths…
Buy
- House value £205,000
- To purchase a 50% equity share £102,500
- To purchase a 70% equity share £143,500
With shared equity there is no monthly rent to be paid (not to be confused with shared ownership), so your monthly payments are substantially less than if you bought the property outright.
The property will be 100% in your ownership, you just pay the loan back, based on the value of your property at the time of resale.
You will need to pass eligibility and affordability assessments and be able to obtain a mortgage.
