The shared ownership scheme helps people get on the housing ladder, so if you’re already a homeowner (including owning property abroad) you can’t usually buy a home through shared ownership. However, if you are selling your current home and can’t afford to buy a new one without the assistance of shared ownership, you may still be eligible. For example, you might currently own a one-bedroom apartment but cannot afford to buy a bigger home, or following a relationship separation you now need to buy a home by yourself and cannot afford to do so. With the assistance of the scheme; shared ownership could be what you’ve been looking for. Get in touch to discuss your personal circumstances.
