I have written to both Councils to remind them of the new government’a policy of encouraging more affordable homes for purchase. First time buyers under the age of 40 can under this scheme buy new homes with a discount of up to 20%, where builders and Councils co-operate to bring this about. I would like to see local Councils as early adopters. There are many younger people in our area who would like to live here in a home of their own, who currently find it too expensive. They either move away to a cheaper area or have to delay their move to home ownership. I want to help more afford their own home and the freedom and pleasure of a place of their own at a younger age.
