Celebrating National Homeownership Month

Celebrating National Homeownership Month

June is National Homeownership Month, a time to celebrate the many benefits of owning a home and reflect on the importance of helping people find their place in the world. Here at Oakley, as proud agents serving Brighton, Shoreham, Lewes and Mid Sussex, we see every day just how life changing homeownership can be.

Why Homeownership Matters

A home isn’t just four walls and a roof, it’s where life happens. It’s where families grow, memories are made, and futures are built. Homeownership offers a sense of security, freedom, and the chance to put down roots in a community you love.
It can also be a key stepping stone to financial stability, with long-term investment potential and the opportunity to personalise a space that’s truly yours.

Sussex: A Wonderful Place to Call Home

We’re lucky to live and work in one of the most diverse and desirable regions in the UK. From the vibrant buzz of Brighton to the rolling countryside of the South Downs, Sussex has something for everyone.
Whether you're a first-time buyer eyeing a starter flat in Shoreham, a growing family looking for more space in Preston Park, or seeking a different life style in a semi rural village out side Lewes, there's a home here with your name on it.


How Oakley Supports Homeownership

At Oakley, we work across residential sales, new homes, shared ownership, and help to buy schemes, making it our mission to help people navigate the home-buying journey with confidence.
We also support local developments that provide affordable and sustainable housing, because we believe homeownership should be accessible, not just aspirational.

Green Mortgages Now Available

A green mortgage is a type of home loan that offers preferential terms to buyers purchasing an energy-efficient property. This means that if you’re buying a new-build home or an existing property with a high Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating, you may be eligible for better mortgage rates or cashback incentives from lenders. The aim is to encourage more homeowners to invest in energy-efficient properties, reducing carbon footprints while also making long-term savings on energy bills.
