First time buyer experience……

I am a first time buyer with my girlfriend and approached SOresi with regards to shared ownership. I was replied to very quickly and arranged a meeting where we saw the floor plans and review the whole project and house plots on the site we liked. We was meet by Jacqui and Andrea, who were wonderful and answered every question we had. They have been amazing with emails (fast replies). They have adapted there approach from emails and phone calls as I personally prefer phone calls. Whilst we was there we spoke to a mortgage broker who was friendly and very quickly to get us results back. The whole process of initially inquiring about the property was smooth and had no bumps during this process. We was then excepted for a property and emails came through thick and fast with clear and precise next steps. We have had multiple leaflets about shared ownership the pros the cons the what to look out for. SOresi have been very open and honest and have made this whole process very smooth. We’re currently at the stage of gaining a mortgage and sorting things out with a solicitor. However, so far as a first time buyer and hearing a lot of negatives around stress levels of moving this has been a complete opposite to how I have felt. I can not thank Andrea and Jacqui enough.

I had a great experience for my house buying process. Heidi who was looking after my case was great at keeping me updated and reassured, along with advice for each stage. She was also great in chasing up anything outstanding on my behalf.
It was also particularly nice that she called me once the final document had landed, purely to let me know over the phone and celebrate.
Thank you!!

I had a really positive viewing experience at SO Flexi Slough. Sandhiya was very honest, informative, and took the time to clearly explain how the rent to buy scheme works, which I really appreciated.

The homes I viewed were finished to a really high standard , modern, well presented, and felt like great value for money. Overall, it was a very helpful and reassuring experience.

Thank you again to Sandhiya for being so professional and approachable throughout.

Takes longer than 6 - 8 weeks they estimate!

the paperwork you get when starting the staircasing process estimates it takes 6 - 8 weeks to complete. I started the process just before Christmas, it is now nearly the end of March, and still not completed! Which also means I am not going to complete by the 31st March, so I will not get the £1000 incentive they offered for buying additional shares.
Majority of the delays have been caused by So-Resi, So far I have had to chase them 4 times to get them to send requested information to my solicitor! So frustratingly causing delays.

Hi TJ,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and I’m sorry to hear that the process has felt frustrating for you.

We always aim to complete staircasing transactions within the estimated timeframe, but this can vary depending on how quickly all parties—particularly both sets of solicitors—are able to progress their parts of the legal work. We appreciate delays are disappointing, and we understand how important the 31st March date is to you.

For transparency, we have provided all required documents, including the buildings insurance, to your solicitors as part of the initial instruction pack in February, and we have continued to respond promptly to every request received throughout the process. The remaining outstanding items at this stage relate to solicitor-to-solicitor actions outside of our control.

If you would like to discuss your case in more detail, we’re more than happy to help. Please feel free to contact our Aftersales Team directly.

Kind regards

Klaudia Miara was fantastic

We have recently purchased a shared ownership property and SO Resi has been so great and helpful so far. I would like to specially mention Klaudia Miara who was very reliable, has very good communication, very efficient and very responsive, we had a lot of troubles with our solicitors that made the process very delayed but she helped on chasing up for everything to get back on track. She absolutely was a star, she made sure everything is taken care of! Very much happy with her customer care and so resi overall. I will recommend it!

SoResi showed up going extra lenght

Since the very start, from the viewing then the offer things were very pleasant having all the answers to my inquiries and swift response timing. All my communications with SoResi were very nice informative and efficient. I was able to get lease extended as I wished . The process was smooth until a critical point when things got difficult with The managing company ( which is not SoResi responsability) to get the paperwork needed to close the deal . That's when SoResi stepped in again to make things happen, chasing, and going extra lenght communicating with all the parties invoved to get the ball rolling. I really apreciated being able to speack over the phone in real time with SoResi in that critical moment , Nikolay Yankov particulary. They gave me the relevant informations with transparency clarifying the process and what was missing . Nikolay Yankov has been a Star, kind, available, working extra hours and going extra miles for the transaction to go ahead in time. Massive thanks to Nikolai. And a big thank you.

Sylvana was our acting solicitor whilst selling shared ownership apartment. Despite the fact, the process seemed to prove challenging, Sylvana was always on top of the game.

Nikolay is fantastic

Although we had a tricky start with the initial consultant and were not particularly impressed with the service pre offer, Nikolay absolutely turned the process around once we had a buyer. He has been fantastic at keeping us informed and getting us to exchange despite difficulties with our buyer's solicitor. We are really grateful for his help.

I had such a positive experience with So Resi, and I truly wanted to take a moment to share my gratitude.

From the beginning of my journey, the process felt supported and smooth, which made a huge difference for me, especially as a single mother managing many responsibilities at once. Moving can be stressful, but this experience felt reassuring and well-guided.

I would especially like to highlight Piers and Heidi, who have both been absolutely amazing throughout. Their professionalism, patience, and kindness really stood out. They took the time to explain things clearly, answered my questions, and made me feel genuinely supported at every stage.

Thanks to them, I have now moved into my new home, and I am incredibly grateful and happy. This is a big milestone for me and my family, and I truly appreciate the role they played in making it happen.

Thank you again to So Resi, and especially to Piers and Heidi, for your dedication and support.

I would definitely recommend So Resi to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive team during their home-buying journey.

We had a fantastic experience with SOresi

We had a fantastic experience with Soresi while purchasing our first flat in London. From start to finish, their team was incredibly supportive, responsive, and transparent, specially Nikolay (super professional and helpful) — making what could have been a stressful process feel easy and enjoyable. They patiently guided us through each step, answered all our questions, and kept us updated at every stage. We’re truly grateful for their professionalism and care, and we couldn’t have asked for a better team to help us buy our first home. Highly recommended!
