Selling a shared ownership home in Bristol can be a bit different from a full ownership property. Typically, you need to own 100% of your home to sell it outright.
If you haven’t staircased to 100%, you’ll need to notify your housing association or developer in Bristol that you wish to sell.
They usually have the first right to buy your share back or find another buyer. If they don’t act within the specified timeframe, you may then list your property on the open market.
Your lease type might also impact your ability to sell; for example, some properties in designated protected areas require the landlord to buy back your share.
If you decide to sell on your own, the process involves getting a property valuation, securing an EPC (Energy Performance Certificate), taking photos of the property, finding a buyer, and completing the sale.
