Shared Ownership from a parents perspective
“These opportunities are life changing. Michael would never have been able to buy without Shared Ownership – it’s as simple as that. It’s given him independence, security and a home he can be proud of.”
For Paulette, who works within NHS management, and her husband, helping their son Michael buy his first home was both a proud and eye-opening experience – one that highlighted just how different the housing landscape is for young people today compared to when they purchased their own first home more than four decades ago.

Michael makes his move to Barking Riverside
“Shared Ownership gave me a chance I otherwise wouldn’t have had. It’s allowed me to live somewhere I’m proud to call home – something I never thought I could do.”
Michael had been renting in Wembley, paying over £2,000 per month plus bills for a one-and-a-half-bedroom apartment. Realising that saving for a deposit was becoming increasingly difficult, he decided the best way forward was to move back into his parents’ home. After carrying out meticulous research and viewing 14 different apartments, Barking Riverside stood out as the clear winner. Michael went on to purchase a 25% shared ownership stake in a one-bedroom apartment and is set to move in May 2025

“When I walked into the flat I eventually went on to buy, it just felt right. I loved the balcony and huge windows. I knew straight away that this was the place for me”.

A different way to own in East London
With Shared Ownership at Barking Riverside, you can buy a share of your home (typically between 25% and 75%) and pay a subsidised rent on the rest. This can reduce the deposit and monthly cost compared with buying outright, while still allowing you to build equity and take your first steps towards homeownership.
