Award-winning developer, Dandara, will be holding the event, which is open to all, between 5.30 and 8.30pm in the Kodak tower where guests will be given the opportunity to view the spectacular new show apartments with far reaching views over the Grand Union Canal and the Boxmoor Trust landscape. An incentive of 6% interest on deposit will also be available to guests who reserve a property that evening.
Getting your children on the property ladder
Principal Ian Abrey from Hillier Hopkins LLP, whose presentation is titled ‘Property and Tax Planning’, will be speaking about:
- Getting your children on the property ladder, gift loans and trust
- Tax planning for your own home
- Buying a property as an investment
Dandara has transformed the previously empty Kodak House, adding two levels to make it 22-storeys high, ensuring it continues to be a well known local landmark and a focal point for the innovative mixed-use development. Located on Station Road, the development combines new build and refurbishment, a selection of one and two bedroom apartments and a series of retail units that will be home to small shops and cafes.
The development is centred round a landscaped piazza with a piece of specially commissioned public art at the heart of the space. A newly constructed footbridge will link the piazza to the recently created Riverside shopping centre.
Michelle Harris, UK South Sales Director for Dandara, comments: “The location and design of Image is perfect for young professionals, many of whom will rely on financial support from their parents.
From the parent’s point of view, there are definitely benefits of buying a property here as an investment for the future particularly with all of the regeneration plans for Hemel Hempstead in the next few years, as well as the superb commuter connections into London.
However, it’s not just parents and children who are invited, anyone who is interested in the scheme should book an appointment to attend the event. The advice that Hillier Hopkins LLP will provide is invaluable and normally something that you have to pay for.”
