IMPORTANT AFFORDABLE HOME OWNERSHIP / BUYER ELIGIBILITY

This property forms part of a Newcastle City Council affordable home ownership initiative and is sold at a 30% discount from its full market value. Prospective purchasers must therefore satisfy the relevant Local Needs Qualification, with eligibility subject to confirmation.

For the first four weeks of marketing, priority is given to qualifying households with a connection to the relevant local ward, currently Castle Ward. Applicants must be unable to afford to purchase the property at full market value, the property must not be under-occupied, and at least one member of the household must meet one of the following criteria:

Have been permanently resident within the Ward for at least five years; or
Have a strong local connection to the Ward, including at least five years' residence within the previous ten years; or
Have an essential need to live close to someone who has lived within the Ward for at least five years, for example because of age or caring responsibilities.

If no qualifying purchaser is secured under these criteria within the initial four-week period, eligibility then widens to applicants with the equivalent connection to the City of Newcastle upon Tyne.

Buyers are advised to speak with Bird House Properties before arranging a viewing or making an offer so that the eligibility requirements can be discussed. Final qualification will be subject to the relevant scheme requirements and confirmation by Newcastle City Council/solicitors.
