Why creating an account on Share to Buy can help you find your dream home faster
Your dream home could be just a click away!
Great homes go fast – catch them early with weekly alerts and save your favourites to check anytime with a Share to Buy account.
We know how exciting – and sometimes overwhelming – the home-buying journey can be. That’s why we’re always looking for ways to make your home search easier, and our latest updates do just that.
From upgraded search filters to personalised profiles, you can learn more about the new features in our recent blog.
But if you really want to get the most out of your Share to Buy experience, creating an account is the best place to start.
Get ahead of the game
The property market moves fast, and homes are snapped up quickly! By creating an account, you can set up weekly property alerts tailored to your search preferences. This means you’ll be the first to hear about new homes that match what you’re looking for, straight to your inbox. Think of it as your insider advantage.
Save and manage your favourite homes
When you’re exploring your options, it’s easy for listings to blur together. Your personalised account lets you save your favourite homes and track your searches, so you can come back to them anytime. Whether you’re comparing Shared Ownership apartments in South London or looking at Rent to Buy homes with outdoor space in Manchester, your saved properties will always be there waiting for you.
Register your interest in a few simple steps
Once you’ve found a home you love, you can register your interest directly with the housing provider through your Share to Buy account – it only takes a minute.
Here’s how it works:
- Make sure you’re signed into your account.
- Click the ‘Register your interest’ button on the property listing.
- Fill in the details on the form.
- Click the ‘Register your interest’ button again at the bottom of the form to send your details straight to the housing provider.
If you’re not logged in, you’ll be prompted to do so when you click the button. And if you don’t yet have an account, you’ll be able to create one there and then, so you can keep your home search moving without missing a beat.
Keep your details up to date
To make sure housing providers can contact you quickly and assess your eligibility correctly, it’s important to keep your account details up to date.
If your income changes, or you’ve recently switched phone numbers or email address, make sure to update your account information. This helps to avoid delays and ensures your enquiries are processed smoothly.
Be first to hear about events and opportunities
As an account holder, you’ll also be the first to hear about upcoming Share to Buy Live events, including our Home Shows – the UK’s no.1 exhibitions for affordable homeownership. These free events bring together housing providers, mortgage advisors and legal experts under one roof, helping you take the next step towards homeownership.
