Want to buy a share of your Helena rented property?
Now you can with Social Homebuy
Helena Living customers now have a new way to get on the property ladder. If you currently rent a property from us you can buy a share of your home through Social Homebuy.
You choose how much you want to invest – at least a 50 per cent share in your property and then pay an affordable rent for the share you don't own. You can increase your share – right up to 100 per cent – at any time
When you sell, you sell your share – either back to us, or if we don’t want it, on the open market.
It’s the flexible way to buy your own home – letting you increase your share if your circumstances change. Perfect if you want to get on the property ladder but can’t afford to buy a home outright.
Remember though, Social Homebuy means you become the homeowner. So that means in future you will be responsible for any repairs or improvements. And if you live in a flat you might have to pay a service charge.
To find out more about Social Homebuy call us on (01744) 671555. One of our advisors will be happy to talk through your options and help you work out the costs.
