LiveWest

Why buy from us?

We own and manage over 40,000 homes across the South West, from Cornwall to Gloucestershire. We have ambitious plans to invest £1bn in the South West economy and to build 5,000 new affordable homes in the region over the next five years. 

This is part of LiveWest taking huge steps towards alleviating the region’s housing shortage, in an area of high housing need as well as high house prices which makes accessing housing particularly challenging for many families. 

We offer homes for affordable rent and shared ownership sale. We also build homes for private sale, to generate profits which we then use to provide and build more affordable homes. 

We take the time to listen to, understand and learn from our customers. We focus on thriving as a business and employer so we can deliver more homes and even better services. 

As well as meeting housing demand, it’s easy to forget the vital role that affordable homes contribute to economic development and prosperity, enabling  local companies to recruit the workforce they need from their communities. LiveWest’s growth strategy will not only contribute to economic growth in the South West but sustain up to 7,000 jobs in the building industry and its supply chain.

Find your new shared ownership home with LiveWest

Shared ownership is intended for eligible people who are looking to buy an affordable home suitable for their needs.

With shared ownership, you buy a share of the full market value (between 10% and 75% depending on the lease and your affordability), and pay rent to LiveWest on the remaining share.

This means a smaller deposit, and a smaller mortgage. A great way to help you get onto the property ladder.  

You can buy more shares as and when it’s affordable to you.

You can find out more about buying a shared ownership home with LiveWest and all of our available homes on our main website.
