One of my clients had lived in a rented house for six years. For the longest time, everything was stable, and the landlord was hands-off, leaving her to enjoy a sense of security. But then, out of the blue, the landlord informed her of his decision to sell the property, giving her just a month to vacate. Feeling overwhelmed, she was unsure of what steps to take next. She had built a comfortable life there with her daughter — her daughter was thriving at school and loved her teachers. The thought of uprooting everything, especially under such tight timelines, left her feeling lost and betrayed. She hoped the landlord would at least discuss his intentions and offer her more time, but that never happened. The situation left her feeling trapped, uncertain, and afraid of the future.
That's when I introduced her to Shared Ownership. Although she had some understanding of the scheme, it initially felt a bit overwhelming to her, especially given her desire to avoid facing another eviction notice. I worked closely with her, simplifying the process, answering her questions, and providing the clarity she needed. Together, we gave her the invaluable resource of time — something that allowed her to make informed decisions without pressure. Within just four months, she and her daughter had moved into a beautiful new home, where they could finally feel at peace, knowing that they were in control of their future.
Now, it's their house, their home.
Are you in a similar situation?
If you're in a similar situation — struggling with a bad credit score, feeling trapped in the cycle of renting, or wondering if homeownership is possible for you — you're already taking the right first step by considering your options.
Perhaps you’re tired of paying rent and think, "If I can pay rent, I can pay a mortgage," but you’re stuck because raising the funds for a deposit seems impossible. You may feel overwhelmed by the complexity of the process and uncertain of whom to trust. Maybe you're afraid that your investment might not be a good decision, or you fear losing money. The idea of homeownership may seem out of reach if you haven't saved enough, or you're unsure if now is the right time to buy a house. You might even be hearing different opinions from people around you, including on social media, leaving you feeling more confused and discouraged.
