"Discovering Shared Ownership was honestly life-changing. I never even considered buying in London before - it just didn’t seem feasible with how expensive it is. After learning that Peabody is one of the largest housing associations that provide Shared Ownership in the UK and reading numerous positive reviews, I felt confident moving forward with them. The Peabody team is brilliant. They were so communicative and accommodating."
