Shared Ownership is a government scheme that offers you the chance to buy a share of a property from a local authority. Because you only own a part of the property, you can buy it with a smaller deposit and mortgage.
A smaller mortgage means smaller repayments but you’ll also need to pay:
- rent on the share of the property you do not yet own
- monthly service charges
Shared Ownership homes can be new builds, existing properties, houses or flats. All Shared Ownership properties are leasehold, even houses.
Shared ownership is a part buy part rent property from a registered landlord
You purchase a share with the help of a mortgage based on your affordability.
Example of costs based on a Share of: 25 % - This amount is based on your personal circumstances
Open Market Value: £155,000
Rent per month: £242.19
Service Charges per month: £23.81
Buildings insurance per month: £2.52
The more you buy the lower your rent will be. These costs will increase each year with inflation.
To be eligible for Shared Ownership you need to:
- be a first-time buyer, an existing shared ownership homeowner, or a former homeowner who can’t afford to buy now
- be over 18 years old
- have an annual household income of less than £80,000 (£90,000 in London).
