The Shared Ownership scheme can help buyers when securing a home for significantly less than the property’s value. For as little as 10%, you can purchase a share of a home, meaning that your deposit will also be lower.
Though you aren’t purchasing your property outright, you do have the opportunity to buy a larger share of the property when your financial circumstances improve.
There are a few criteria that you must meet to be eligible for the Shared Ownership scheme. You must be a first-time buyer or have previously owned a home but cannot afford a home now, or are an existing homeowner looking to move.
You must also have a combined household income below £80,000 a year (£90,000 in London).
If you have any questions about eligibility, you can speak to your local Douglas Allen agents today.
