Anchor Shared Ownership offers a flexible way to buy a home at this development, allowing you to purchase a share of the property rather than the full value upfront.

You can buy between 25% and 90% of the property’s value, usually using savings or proceeds from the sale of an existing home. You’ll pay a monthly rent on the share you don’t own, along with a monthly service charge.

The share you’re able to buy depends on your personal financial circumstances. You may also be eligible for Government support to help with rent or service charge payments.

Our Bewise team is here to help you understand what’s affordable for you and whether you qualify for any financial assistance. Simply register your interest, and one of our consultants will be in touch to guide you through your options.
