Shared ownership homes: Buying, improving and selling: How shared ownership works - You can buy a home through shared ownership if both of the following are true:
• your household income is £80,000 a year or less (£90,000 a year or less in London)
• you cannot afford all of the deposit and mortgage payments for a home that meets your needs One of the following must also be true:
• you’re a first-time buyer
• you used to own a home but cannot afford to buy one now (this is tested per person, its not just based on someone saying they can't afford to buy a home. If the mortgage calculator suggests they can buy on the open market they won't qualify).
• you’re forming a new household - for example, after a relationship breakdown
• you’re an existing shared owner, and you want to move
• you own a home and want to move but cannot afford a new home that meets your needs

Anyone who is approved will need to obtain confirmation from a financial advisor that they can afford the payments and that they qualify and also ask the mortgage provide/broker to provide the Homes England shared ownership calculator.
