Here at Platform, we love to hear your Shared Ownership stories—whether you're taking your first steps on the property ladder or moving on to your dream home.
One of our favourites is about Mick and Lynn, who found that they weren't enjoying their living situation and wanted to do something about it.
This is where Shared Ownership and Platform helped them find the perfect solution, a move back into a beautiful new home and most importantly, the opportunity to find something 'a little bit more' in an area they love.
Hear Mick and Lynn's full buyer story
When Mick and Lynn found themselves unhappy in their living situation, they weren't sure what options they had available to them.
They knew they wanted to be back in Warwick, near their family, but didn't really know what that move might look like.
While they initially dismissed affordable home ownership schemes, as they thought they may not be eligible, it wasn't until they found Platform that they realised Shared Ownership wasn't just ideal for them, but a very real possibility.
"Platform gave us a choice to do something we wouldn't have been able to do"
After researching Platform and our range of properties, things moved quickly for Mick and Lynn, who found the ideal home back in Warwick near their family.
We were happy to support them with any questions they had and glad to say the move went smoothly from start to finish!
One thing that particularly stood out to us was what Mick and Lynn said when they first viewed their home, taking note of the layout and build quality:
"It suits all types of people, scenarios and situations...".
We couldn't have put it better ourselves!
Today, we're delighted to say that Mick and Lynn - plus all of the family! - still absolutely love the local area as well as their Shared Ownership home.
