A new shared ownership brand has been launched by a Berkshire-based real estate company.
Formerly known as Leaders and Romans Shared Ownership, the team behind the new brand called SOWN has facilitated the exchange and completion of more than 2,000 properties in the past five years
SOWN is part of Leaders Romans Group symbolises the concept of sowing the seeds of a new beginning, with the team supporting and guiding buyers to achieve the purchase of their new home and starting a new chapter in their lives.
After a lot of research and development, the brand is highly targeted to the demographic of buyers interested in shared ownership. It has a modern feel and a focus on the dream lifestyle that can be achieved through this way of buying.
Commenting on the creation of the new brand, Adrian Plant, Director of SOWN said: ‘Our team has had an unprecedented year as demand for shared ownership has never been stronger.
“Our links to Leaders, Romans, and the many other brands and services within the Group has been, and continues to be, an important aspect of our growth.
“But the creation of SOWN enables us to move forward into new geographic areas, replicating that success throughout the country. It also helps us elevate the profile of shared ownership and gives us a platform to promote its benefits with the huge proportion of the UK that doesn’t understand it and doesn’t know that it is an option for them.’
Peter Kavanagh, Chief Executive Officer of LRG added:, ‘The evolution of LRG’s Shared Ownership division and ultimately the creation of SOWN is a big success story for the Group.
“We’re proud to have helped thousands of people onto the property ladder – importantly, those who could not have done so on the open market, but also those who saw shared ownership as a means of buying their dream home, perhaps earlier than they might have done, or in their preferred location.
‘Shared ownership is one of the fastest growing sectors within the property industry. It’s one which has been little understood until recently but offers an opportunity to so many. We’re proud to be part of its exponential growth and see the creation of SOWN as an important step in that process.”
