More than 80 families will have the chance to get their
feet on the property ladder thanks to £2 million of Government funding. EPIC
Housing has been awarded the money under the Homes and Communities Agency's
Rent to Buy scheme, which will allow it to help first-time buyers save for
their home. EPIC, which is contributing £6 million to the programme, will give
aspiring home owners the chance to choose a property for sale, which they would
eventually like to purchase, in North Staffordshire. Only homes requiring
repairs costing between £1,500 and £10,000 will qualify for the scheme - as one
of the aims is to bring homes back into use. Read more on the Stoke Sentinel
