A UK developer has slashed prices at a plush apartment project, which is now offering units for less than £100,000.
Barratt Homes is cutting the cost of prime flats in the heart of the flagship Buckshaw Village development in Chorley, Lancashire.
The converted mill apartments now have price tags rarely associated with brand new homes, with sales negotiator Julie Carmichael declaring:
“It really doesn’t get any better.”
The properties are for sale from £93,500 for a ground floor property, reduced from £116,800.
A first-floor unit is available at £95,500, down from £119,300, with Barratt also offering to pay a five per cent deposit.
The offer is one of a series of sudden price cuts and discounts being run by developers which are still keen to shift stock during the current market downturn.
Units at the Buckshaw View development, also in Chorley, are also being discounted, with the one-bedroom first floor home ‘coach house’ up for sale at £121,400, reduced from £151,700, with Barratt again paying the five per cent deposit.
Elsewhere, David Wilson homes is offering to buy people’s homes at full market value and also pay a person’s mortgage until 2010 if they buy a house in St Richard’s Park, Chichester.

Always be prepared to negotiate. If property developers are offering discounts, don’t you wonder what else they might have up their sleeve?
