What happened at the London Home Show Autumn 2025?
The London Home Show Autumn 2025 was a free, one-day exhibition for first-time buyers, held from 10am to 5pm on Saturday 27 September 2025 at the QEII Centre in Westminster. Visitors ranged from people still getting to grips with home-buying jargon to people ready to find the one.
The show had what they needed to make sense of first-time buyer schemes:
- exhibitor stands from leading housing providers;
- free advice from financial and legal experts;
- workshops, seminars and live Q&A sessions;
- and, of course, plenty of snacks.
Share to Buy hosts the London Home Show and describes it as the country’s no.1 first-time buyer event. Its recap of the day called it the 22nd London Home Show, with more than 35 exhibitors and over 85,000 homebuyers welcomed since 2013.

How did the London Home Show fit into Shared Ownership Week?
The London Home Show Autumn 2025 was a highlight of Shared Ownership Week 2025, a campaign to raise awareness of Shared Ownership. The week ran from 24 to 30 September 2025, with the show on the Saturday. Shared Ownership Week is run as a joint venture between Share to Buy and The Media People, and the campaign’s London Home Show page promoted the day.
It’s an event we’re proud to support. Giving first-time buyers the information, options and confidence to start their home-buying journey is hard to beat. The year before, the autumn show ran on 28 September 2024: here’s our record of the London Home Show and Shared Ownership Week 2024.
Shared Ownership lets you buy a share of a home, usually between 25% and 75%, and pay rent to a landlord on the rest, according to gov.uk.
What did Shared Ownership Week publish before the show?
In the run-up to the show, Shared Ownership Week published two kinds of content for first-time buyers:
- Real stories. We shared stories from people who have bought their homes through Shared Ownership, showing what it’s like to be a first-time buyer in 2025.
- The Keys to the Future podcast. We talk to industry experts to demystify mortgages, staircasing and all things Shared Ownership. Share to Buy’s Shared Ownership Week page announced three episodes for September 2025.
Why lead with content? Our Shared Ownership Week 2023 case study explains the thinking.
