Part Buying Part Renting a home is much simpler than you think!

If you are considering buying a home right now you should read on.  Especially, if you are struggling with the current prices of housing and how you can afford to buy the home you want.

This is a first-hand experience from one of our MovingSoon Customers, Sarah, about how she got on the property ladder.

Like most people, Sarah was looking for affordable properties in her area.  It was when Sarah was searching for properties to view she came across shared ownership.  She needed to find out more about what shared ownership meant and this brought Sarah to MovingSoon.

Research and find property in one place

Sarah says:I read up about shared ownership and what it entails from information on the (MovingSoon) website”.  After deciding that shared ownership housing could work for her, Sarah found a shared ownership property through MovingSoon.  The home Sarah found was owned by Wakefield and District Housing (WDH) and Sarah was able to contact them directly to register her interest and arrange a viewing.

“The process for applying through WDH was straight forward…Everything was communicated clearly via email, telephone conversations and meetings with WDH, I always knew where I stood.

All the information was on (MovingSoon) with helpful guidelines. WDH gave me some numbers of mortgage advisors that have experience of dealing with shared ownership. I found that I had everything I needed.

WDH were always available and willing to help, they also provided plenty of information to help the process run smoothly. I would recommend this option and the use of MovingSoon to other home buyers.”
