Shared equity helping customers to buy their dream home

Our Woodland Park development in West Lothian gives residents the opportunity to buy their very own brand-new home through the shared equity scheme, designed to help keep the deposit and monthly payments to a minimum.

The first phase of these properties sold quickly and our second and final phase of two-bedroom homes is now available for sale through shared equity.

Located in Calderwood, a new village in West Lothian, it sits next to 220 acres of woodland at Calderwood Country Park. It is perfect for couples and young families and has good transport links to both Edinburgh and Glasgow.

The homes are spacious and include beautifully designed kitchens as well as modern bathroom suites.

Don’t just take our word for it though, below our customers explain how shared equity has helped them to buy their dream home at Woodland Park.

Saira and Garry both in their early 30’s thought buying a home was out of reach for them until they found out about the shared equity scheme available at Woodland Park.

“With property prices quite high and the amount of deposit we would have needed, we didn’t think we would be able to buy our own home. However we then found out about shared equity at Woodland Park and it ticked all our boxes. It is also such a beautiful location perfect for young families with a country park close by for great walks and adventures.

The Places for People sales team have been seamless in their contact and throughout the process. They have been understanding, professional and made buying our first home a wonderful experience. We will be forever thankful”

Jennifer, age 34, originally thought she would need to by an older home because she wouldn’t be able to afford a new build when online searches led her to Woodland Park and shared equity.

“I was living in Glasgow and looking for a home to shorten my commute to Edinburgh, that had local amenities and within my budget.

“I loved the look of the homes at Woodland Park when I searched online and the fact they are close to Edinburgh but have a nice rural feel to them with the country park close by. I thought shared equity sounded the perfect way to get onto the property ladder and the sales team supported me fully throughout my home-buying journey.”

These homes are expected to sell quickly, so contact our friendly sales team to find out more today.
