Case study: Linu and Sam
After gaining an extra bedroom, a balcony, more living space and somewhere that they can call their own, Linu George Peter (28) and Sam John (29) have been enjoying the advantages of purchasing their first home with Shared Ownership at Union Walk. The couple purchased 25% of the home and have also benefitted from the Elizabeth line, which makes work commutes swift and easy.
Linu commented: “Previously, we were renting a one bedroom flat in Southall, but when our rent increased, it wasn’t financially viable for us to stay there. We’d heard about Shared Ownership, so decided to research the scheme and quickly realised that it was the best option for us. Without Shared Ownership, there’s no way we could afford to stay in London. Our monthly outgoings, including bills, are pretty much the same as they were in our rental and the gains are immeasurable.”
