The first ever Help to Buy Show Cheshire is set to take place in Crewe later this week.
The show, at Crewe Hall on October 10, will offer free advice for home hunters.
It is aimed at anyone looking to buy their first home or take the next step up on the property
ladder in Cheshire.
It is being hosted by Government-appointed agent Help to Buy North West, Plus Dane.
Hopeful property buyers can find out about the affordable home ownership schemes across the region.
Sandy Kelly, head of Help to Buy North West, said: “This event is a must visit for anyone considering their next steps on the property ladder.
“Whether they are first time buyers or second steppers, this event pulls together expert advice from all areas.
“Attendees will have access to guidance on the government Help to Buy schemes, including Shared Ownership and the Help to Buy equity loan, as well as legal advice from the region’s leading solicitors and impartial financial information at hand from a wealth of financial advisors.
“It’s a rare opportunity for potential buyers to get their questions answered all in one place.”
The event will also feature hundreds of homes available throughout Cheshire, and outline forthcoming developments from house builders.
The government’s “Help to Buy” equity loan scheme aims to help people buy a new build home with just a 5% deposit.
Sandy added: “The Help to Buy scheme continues to be a massive success, as recent figures show more than 120,000 homes have been bought under the government supported schemes.
“We want to continue supporting aspiring home owners, and the Help to Buy Show Cheshire is a key part of this.”
People wishing to attend the show should register online for their free ticket.

I wonder just how successful these buy a % and rent the remainder really are. A lot of these seem to take ages to sell.
Why not have a discounted scheme for a house in the first place, and why is it only new builds?
In some areas whole streets of terraced houses are transformed in a uniform fashion and they look brilliant. I am sure a restored terrace would not cost as much as a new one, yet this seems to be pandering to the house builders with cheaper housing stock left vacant.
Cheap housing to them is just that, not really big enough for a growing family at all!
This is just another scheme which will inflate house prices still further. Ridiculous!
