Bristol Home Show Sponsor: Meet Sovereign Network Group
Shared Ownership homes in Bristol, Gloucester and Exeter
At Sovereign Network Group (SNG), we are passionate about giving everyone the opportunity to own their own home.
As one of the UK’s leading housing associations we’ve helped thousands of people find their dream home with Shared Ownership. Every pound of profit we make is reinvested into our new and existing homes and services that enable us to create sustainable homes in thriving communities.
Do you feel like you’re being priced out of the housing market in Bristol?
Don’t worry, you’re not alone! Bristol is currently ranked the seventh most expensive city in the UK to be a first time buyer according to Rightmove, with the average home now costing an astounding £383,802.
With homeownership seemingly out of reach, it’s no surprise many buyers have turned to the rental market. However, with Bristol’s increasing popularity and a decreasing number of private rental homes available, rents in the city have increased by a staggering 52% over the last decade, whilst wages rose by just 24% according to Bristol City Council.
But there’s still hope! Even amid the current economic and housing climate, Shared Ownership remains an affordable route to homeownership for those who have otherwise been priced out of the housing market.
Here’s a selection of our Shared Ownership homes in Bristol and the South West.
