BRIDGES ESTATE AGENT in Uppermill look at what the property market holds for first time buyers
WITH THE arrival of summer in Saddleworth and the property market on the rise, there has been an emergence of first time buyers in the local area, writes Rachel Hobbs.
Every week, more and more properties are being listed for sale and with the surge of new property being brought to the market, we are starting to see an increase in the number of purchases being made by people securing their first home.
First time buyers have faced numerous difficulties in recent years, with rising house prices and large deposits. This has left people waiting longer before they can think about purchasing a home.
Many have turned to families and to the government schemes for help just so they can get a foot on the property ladder. However, the desire to own a property remains strong.
Many first time buyers choose to rent in an area before buying. Others choose to stay in the area they know.
Popular choices for purchases are Greenfield, Mossley and Lees, as they offer good local amenities and great transport links in to the towns and cities for commuters while remaining more affordable.
Saddleworth is notably an expensive area and can make finding that first house all the more difficult. However, we at Bridges continue to see an improvement and encourage first time buyers to come in to look at what is on offer.
