What Is Shared Ownership?

With Shared Ownership you can have the lifestyle you’ve dreamed of without paying the full price. If you buy a 50% share, you pay rent on the remaining 50% of your property. If you buy a 75% share you can enjoy the property rent free. Who wouldn’t want 25% off?

The Shared Ownership scheme is run in conjunction with Homes England, our government approved partner.
