Make moving easy with Barratt Homes and Part Exchange

For many homeowners seeking to make their next move, there is nothing more disheartening than putting your home on the market and waiting months to secure a viewing, let alone a sale.

In the open market, being stuck in a chain can create headaches for both buyers and sellers by causing purchases to fall through and bring uncertainty when you need to move quickly.

For those who are looking to buy new, help is at hand with Barratt Homes’ Part Exchange scheme. The housebuilder could be the guaranteed buyer of your current property, meaning you can use the cash generated from the sale of your home as a deposit for your new home.

Abergeldie

Typically, the new home should be worth at least 20-30 per cent more than your current home, making it the ideal option for growing families seeking to upsize. Barratt Homes will commission two valuations, and the offer made will be calculated using the average of the two. In most cases, you will receive this guaranteed offer within 7 working days.

There has been significant increase in the number of buyers who are making their next move using Part Exchange, allowing for a quicker move with no fuss, no estate agent fees and no chain, just a straightforward move for you and your family.

Parkhill View

Part Exchange is currently available on a range of 2, 3 & 4 bed properties across Aberdeen including Cove, Aberdeen city centre, Bucksburn, Kingseat, Kemnay and Inverurie. Prices start from £179,995 to £354,995.
