The bungalows , along with the houses for sale at Wildbridge , will be available through shared ownership . This government-funded scheme enables buyers to purchase a share in a property , meaning they need a smaller deposit than if they were purchasing the home outright . The buyer pays a subsidised rent on the remaining share , with the option to purchase additional shares in the home according to their own financial circumstances and timescale .
EDITOR ' S CHOICE
Elms Collection homes are priced from £ 108,500for a 35 % share *. This means a buyer would need a deposit of just £ 5,425 to buy a home at the development .
Shared ownership at Wildbridge has proven popular with first-time buyers , though the scheme is not limited to those buying their first home . Craig Vincent ( 31 ), who bought a house at a previous phase of Wildbridge with partner Emma Morphew ( 26 ), comments : “ Buying our first home through shared ownership was the right route for us . It provided us with an unmissable opportunity , and I ' m not sure that we could have got on the property ladder without it . We purchased a 35 % share , and put down a £ 6,500 deposit , opposed to what would have amounted to £ 37,000 if we were to buy the same home on the open market , which I found to be very affordable .”
" The development ' s previous phases have proven popular with a wide range of buyers thanks to their spacious design and superb quality ."
