What is a Shared Ownership Mortgage?
A Shared Ownership mortgage allows you to buy a portion of a property, typically between 25% and 75%, and pay rent on the remaining share. This scheme is designed to help people who cannot afford to buy a home outright.
How It Works?
- Purchase a Share: Buy a percentage of the property and get a mortgage for that share.
- Pay Rent: Pay rent on the remaining share owned by the housing association.
- Increase Ownership: Gradually buy more shares of the property until you own it outright (known as staircasing).
Benefits of Shared Ownership Mortgages
- Lower Deposit: Smaller deposit required compared to buying outright.
- Affordable Entry: Easier entry into homeownership with lower initial costs.
- Flexibility: Option to increase your share in the property over time.
