Olympic house prices unveiled

Hundreds of homes in what was the Athletes Village in the Olympic Park are now available to rent or buy.

The 356 homes for rent with a 20% discount on market rate, and another 348 available through shared ownership will be available from Triathlon Homes and will be a mix of one, two and three bedroom apartments.

Robyn Dwyer reports:

Barry Jessup, Director of First Base one of the partners in Triathlon Homes, has told ITV London that he has seen "phenomenal interest" from Londoners keen to buy or rent a home in East Village.

The first homes at the former Athletes' Village are going on sale, and prices of the homes have been revealed today.

Find out if you are eligible:

• You have a gross household income of no more than £66,000 per annum when eligible to purchase or rent a one or two bedroom home.
• You have a gross household income of no more than £80,000 per annum when eligible to purchase or rent a family sized home (three or more bedrooms).

• You are unable to purchase a suitable home to meet your housing needs on the open market.
• You do not already own a home or you will have sold your current home before you purchase or rent.

A year after the London 2012 Games, the first homes at the former Athletes' Village are going on sale. The 348 shared ownership flats are 25% of the full £270,000 price.

• Shared ownership homes are available from £67,500 for a 25% share, which requires a deposit of just £6,750.
• Intermediate Rent homes are available from £210 per week, which is a 30% reduction on average market rate rents.

Londoners will get their first chance from this week to buy or rent a home at East Village E20, London's newest neighbourhood on the site of the former Athletes Village.

The 356 homes for rent with a 20% discount on market rate, and another 348 available through shared ownership will be available from Triathlon Homes and will be a mix of one, two and three bedroom apartments.
