Legal and General Affordable Homes Croydon
With waiting lists for affordable housing reaching 1.1 million in England and more than 2,000 families in need of temporary housing in Croydon alone, Legal & General is delighted to further engage in this groundbreaking partnership and create a plan for institutions and the public sector to work together to tackle the UK`s housing crisis. Legal & General`s investment, which does not require a government grant for affordable housing and is not based on Article 106 contributions, represents a first for the sector and an innovative new model that could be rolled out in other London boroughs and UK local authorities. The houses are managed by the Croydon Council`s housing team and rented for a period of 40 years, after which they are owned by the council. Rents are set at the level of the local housing allowance (“LHA”). The investment, which is made on behalf of Legal & General Retirement Institutional, fits perfectly into Legal & General`s long-term annuity commitments. It shows the positive social impact that a proactive local authority and long-term investment can have in enabling Croydon Council to meet its affordable housing needs and reduce the burden on public budgets. New Build Condominium: Also known as partial purchase rent, with this affordable homeownership program, you acquire a share of a new property and rent the rest from the housing provider. The price indicates the minimum amount available, and the size of the stock you buy depends on what you can afford. Denton said L&G has secured a pipeline of 40 sites across the UK and aims to deliver 1,500 affordable homes over the next two years. “This series of market pathways will help us achieve our goal of becoming one of the UK`s leading providers of affordable housing and providing the volume of affordable housing the country desperately needs.” L&G`s Department of Affordable Housing said it has secured four programmes across the UK, covering 278 units and plans to provide 3,000 affordable housing units a year by 2023. Legal & General Affordable Homes is a registered provider that offers these condominiums for sale. We create communities to live, grow and thrive, and we are committed to eliminating the stress and fear of moving while creating customer satisfaction and quality new homes.
Pete Gladwell, Head of Public Sector Partnerships at Legal & General, said: “The strengthening of our partnership with Croydon Council underlines our determination to innovate and tackle the UK`s chronic housing crisis. With this additional investment, we will create 250 housing units and much-needed stability for some of society`s most vulnerable people. This is an excellent demonstration of our goal to create inclusive capitalism by developing a structure that supports our long-term pension commitments while improving lives and helping to create additional savings for the Board`s reinvestment.

Legal & General has been active in residential construction for over 20 years. They work with local authorities, housing associations and developers across the country.
The goal is to create more than 3,000 new affordable housing units each year.

If you can`t afford to pay the mortgage on 100% of a home, the condo gives you the option to buy part of your home (between 25% and 75%) and pay rent for the remaining portion. Later, you can buy larger shares if you can afford it and, if you wish, directly own the property. The monthly cost of buying through shared ownership is usually lower than buying or renting, making it a fantastic option for climbing the ladder.
