Are you dreaming of moving to a new home but worried about selling your existing property? Then why not visit Barratt Homes' Gloster Gate development on Albermarle Road in Newcastle-under-Lyme to find out how we can help you move with our Movemaker and Part Exchange services.

Alastair Parsons, Senior Sales Manager for Barratt Mercia comments, "We have a great range of three-bedroom houses available which are all available to purchase with our Movemaker and Part Exchange schemes.

"These schemes are ideal for anyone who is looking to move to a new home but is struggling to find a buyer, or simply wants to cut out all the hassle of selling the property independently."

The Movemaker scheme is a popular service from Barratt which takes care of selling your existing property, doing everything a good estate agent does.

Barratt instructs an estate agent on your behalf to sell your home, manages all the valuations, viewings, liaisons and phone calls. All you need to do is agree with the asking price and check the sales particulars are correct. With Movemaker there are also no estate agent fees to worry about.

Alastair continues, "With Movemaker we aim to help you find a buyer within four weeks and complete legal ownership to allow you to move into your new Barratt home as soon as possible."

With Part Exchange the company arranges for the property to be inspected by two independent valuers and makes a fair offer based on the average of the two valuations. All the purchaser needs to do is agree with the valuation and reserve their new Barratt home.

Plus Barratt is effectively a cash buyer, so there is no chance of a chain falling through and purchasers can concentrate on enjoying their new home.

Alastair added, "With the chance to move to a brand new home in a short period of time and without doing any work yourself, it is no surprise that Movemaker and Part Exchange have been so popular and I am sure that homebuyers in Newcastle-under-Lyme will find that they are able to move to Gloster Gate with our help too."

Gloster Gate is located in Newcastle-under-Lyme and sits less than a mile away from the popular town centre. The area enjoys excellent travel links and has a wealth of local schools and colleges nearby.
