Shared ownership
How shared ownership works
Shared ownership schemes allow you to buy a share of the property – between 10 per cent and 75 per cent (depending on the type of lease that the provider is offering)....This is calculated on the full open market value. ...Some rural schemes do not allow full ownership, this is to make sure that there is always a stock of affordable housing in rural locations.
