The Ladder (Shared Owners & Equity Loan Holders Magazine)
Until now, Radian residents have received their local magazines such as Swaythlink, Voices or Contact. However, research shows that it does not fully meet the needs of our Shared Owners and Equity Loan Holders.
That's because there are particular questions, interests and issues around their tenures that are specific to them. So from April 2010, we will be publishing a twice yearly, eight page magazine called The Ladder for all Radian Shared Owners and Equity Loan Holders.
It's a joint production between Home Ownership and Swaythling Community Involvement. It will provide contact, information and support. It's also a way of managing expectations.
Articles will be around such topics as:
- Who we are and what we do
- Staircasing and downward staircasing
- Resales
- Finance – remortaging, redeeming equity loan, difficulty in paying rent/mortgage
- Home improvements
- Rents and service charges
- What Housing Officers do etc
- Getting involved and community development
There will be an Editorial Panel of staff and residents. Staff producing The Ladder are Lynda Lines, Sales & Marketing Manager (Home Ownership) and Michael Luckie, Swaythlink's Editor, (Community Involvement).
