All buyers have now moved into Church Road, reports developer Galliard.
The development completed in 2020, offering high-quality starter homes, where prices started from £350,000 for a one-bedroom apartment.
The development saw a huge uplift in enquiries following the developer’s decision to prolong the Stamp Duty offer for six months before the Government announced their extension from 31st March to 30th June.
One of the happy buyers at Church Road is Sasi Mugunthan (40) who bought one of the three-bedroom townhouses using Help to Buy. Sasi is a technical lead at Citibank, and had been looking online for property in the local Leyton market when Galliard’s scheme was suggested by a property consultant.
“I had heard of Galliard’s good reputation for delivering high-quality homes across London so as soon as Church Road was suggested I was keen to look at the development myself,” said Sasi.
Using Help to Buy and putting down a 5% deposit, Sasi and his family moved into their townhouse just in time for Christmas 2020. The stamp duty holiday was a key motivator for Sasi, who explained Galliard’s extension removed the pressure that many buyers felt to complete in time.
“The extension gave us peace of mind, we saw the townhouse, made an offer and then Galliard’s dedicated team helped us through the process. The Help to Buy process was quite delayed due to how busy the market was but Galliard’s team helped us at each step.”
