Shared ownership in Poole

Instead of buying your new apartment outright, with Platinum Skies, you purchase a portion of the properties value, typically 50%. You then pay an agreed monthly fee to cover rent and service charges on the remaining share.

Our shared ownership scheme is approved by Homes England.

Additional peace of mind for home owners

A helping hand, a watchful eye, it’s what independence is made of and it’s how our communities like to look out for each other. It’s a real weight off your mind to know you always have someone on hand to call on, not only in an emergency but for everyday matters too.

The Community Manager is an understanding friend, someone who really knows the local area, a reassuring presence and a master organiser. In short, someone who’s there for you in every way.

And in later life, if more specialist care is needed, our Care Quality Commission registered personal care team is on hand, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to support your independence.
