First-time buyers, Olivia and Cam initially thought it would take years before they could purchase their first home together. However, their dream of stepping onto the property ladder became a reality sooner than they thought when they discovered Shared Ownership with Gleeson.
After hearing amazing things from others who have bought with Gleeson, it was an easy choice! Olivia and Cam also found that the homes are not typical new build houses, Gleeson offers a variety of styles to choose from, making it more appealing.
On owning their own home, the couple said: "We thought it would be years until we could save for the deposit and buy, however after understanding and becoming more aware of Shared Ownership, we decided this would be an easy and affordable way to take our first steps onto the property ladder.
“Our previous home was similar in size to the new house we purchased; however, our Gleeson home is detached and comes with the bonus of a garage, which is fantastic! While we used to pay £1,050 per month for our previous home, we now pay £941 for our Shared Ownership home, yet we are enjoying numerous additional benefits. Making the switch was an obvious choice for us!
“We went with Shared Ownership to help us with the buying process. We don’t have lots of money as first-time buyers/younger people so we thought we’d buy half of our dream home and buy more shares as and when we can!
"It feels like a weight has been lifted off our shoulders and now all our money isn’t wasted on a rental and going into someone else’s pocket.Thank you for making our dreams come true, Gleeson!"
