‘My new home is a dream’

16/08/2022

Nishil recently bought a shared ownership apartment at Landmark Pinnacle, Europe’s tallest residential tower located in the heart of Canary Wharf.

Landmark Pinnacle residents have access to a 24 hour concierge service, a cinema, gym, children’s play areas, landscaped gardens and two double-height roof terraces.

“I was renting until 2020 then moved back home to save some money to buy a property.

As a single applicant, I was limited in what kind of property I could afford.

"Shared ownership has given me the possibility to buy an apartment I love but wouldn't have been able to afford on my own."

Poplar HARCA’s sales team have been amazing from the get go and my experience buying a shared ownership property has genuinely been a pleasure.  From my first enquiry, they have always responded very quickly to any correspondence.

During the purchase cycle they have been very helpful in explaining the processes providing the best guidance.  Never did I feel pressured into making a quick decision or that I was ‘another sale’. Even after my sale completed the sales team have been available to help me. I would recommend shared ownership with Poplar HARCA to anyone looking to buy.

"My new home is a dream, it has amazing views, great facilities and the convenience I needed to commute for work and socialising."

The surrounding area has so much to offer in terms of restaurants and bars, to outdoor activities.

My advice to prospective shared ownership buyers is to work out your overall monthly expenses.  It’s important to consider mortgage interest rates and shared ownership rates.  And check that you can have the option to own 100% of the property in future, by stair casing.

Knowing that I own my own home is a feeling that can’t be expressed in words. It might feel daunting at the time, but after working towards this for so many years, finally having a place I can truly call my own home feels like a massive achievement.”
