Shared Ownership opens the door to a new future for Rebecca at Wolverton Mill

Shared Ownership

These are challenging times for would-be homeowners, but when Rebecca discovered Shared Ownership, she found it was an affordable route onto the property ladder.  

Following a relationship breakdown, she had been renting while considering her options: “It was important to find somewhere stable and long-term for me and my daughters.”

Having grown up in Wolverton, she was keen to stay in the area and learnt about Shared Ownership when she was researching affordable housing options. And by chance, while out for a family walk one day she saw a sign for Wolverton Mill. “That moment really set everything in motion” she remembers.

She immediately took action and contacted us: “From the first call with Orbit Homes, I had a really positive feeling. The floor plans and the house designs were thoughtful, the process felt supportive, and Orbit Homes came across as genuinely caring.”

“I wanted a home that was fresh, modern, and low maintenance. A new build home gave me peace of mind that everything was brand new, without hidden problems.”

With several house types available, she chose The Birch: “The layout really stood out for us – it just felt right straight away.”

Once she had reserved her new home, she told us: “The process was very straightforward. It was much less stressful than I imagined, with clear guidance at every stage.”

“Debbie, the sales consultant was fantastic, always quick to respond and made the whole experience personal and enjoyable. The site managers were also amazing; very supportive and thorough at handover.”

Rebecca and her daughters moved into their new home earlier this year and told us: “We love that the house already feels like home. It’s bright, spacious, and has exceeded our expectations. The location is also ideal, close to family, familiar surroundings, and a great community feel.”

“The specification is excellent, the layout works perfectly for us, and the quality of finish and appliances is much higher than I’d seen elsewhere.”

“Our friends and family have been so impressed; they all say how lovely, welcoming, and well-designed the home is.”

“The whole experience has been fantastic. What stood out most was how personal and supportive Orbit Homes made the process, it never felt like ‘just another sale’.”

“Shared Ownership made it possible for us to have security and stability. It allowed us to stay in the area we love, and it gave us a home that we wouldn’t otherwise have been able to afford.”

Wolverton Mill offers the perfect blend of modern living, outdoor beauty, and city convenience, with Milton Keynes just a 10-minute drive away. We’ll be releasing the final Shared Ownership homes at this popular development this autumn, so register your interest today!
