What is Shared Ownership?
Shared Ownership gives first time buyers and those that do not currently own a home the opportunity to purchase a share property. You pay a mortgage on the share you own, and pay a subsidised rent to a housing association on the remaining share. Because the you only need a mortgage for the share you are purchasing, the amount of money required for a deposit is usually lower when compared to the amount that would be required when purchasing outright. You have the option to increase your share during your time in the property via a process known as ‘staircasing’, and in most cases can staircase all the way to 100%. In this instance, you will no longer pay rent, just the mortgage along with any relevant service charges and ground rent.
