Marketed as Esprit Apartments @ Strata, the collection<br />

of 51 one bedroom and 47 two bedroom properties<br />

provided by Family Mosaic were hugely popular with<br />

first time buyers resulting in 80 expressions of interest<br />

from people living or working in the London Borough<br />

of Southwark during the 2 day pre-launch in March.<br />

To date, all 98 shared ownership and shared equity<br />

<strong>apartments</strong> have been reserved to first time buyers<br />

with 86 residents now in occupation.<br />

One of the main attractions to those looking for an<br />

affordable property at Esprit Apartments was the new<br />

initiative by Family Mosaic whereby purchasers would pay<br />

just 1.75% on the monthly rental. So for a 25% share<br />

(£53,125) of a typical one bedroom apartment (market<br />

price £212,500) the monthly cost would be around £744.27<br />

including the mortgage, rent and service charge. Putting this<br />

into perspective, the average rental price for a one bedroom<br />

apartment in Elephant and Castle is £1,092* a month which<br />

means purchasers can make a considerable saving as well as<br />

owning a property themselves.<br />

Towering at 43 storeys above the Elephant and Castle,<br />

Strata is a new architectural icon which currently sits as<br />

the tallest residential tower in Central London. Here, Family<br />

Mosaic provided a rare opportunity for first time buyers to<br />

secure a home for just £52,500 and become part of<br />

a dynamic new addition to the London skyline.<br />
