ABOUT SHARED OWNERSHIP Shared Ownership is a popular government backed scheme that allows you to buy a share of your new home. Shared Ownership is a popular government backed scheme that allows you to buy a share of your new home (usually from 40% - 75%) and pay a small rent on the remainder you don’t own. You have the exact same rights as a home owner regardless of your share. You can increase your share as your circumstances change, or even buy outright in the future. As with all home purchases, you’ll need to have saved up for a deposit but it’s often a LOT cheaper than a full mortgage. For impartial advice we can put you in touch with a specialist mortgage adviser. You can buy your home with Shared Ownership if: + Your household earns £80,000 a year or less + You’re a first-time buyer (or existing shared owner moving to another shared ownership home) + Your income is sufficient to cover the mortgage (if applicable), rent and service charges + Your chosen Shared Ownership property is affordable and sustainable for you. You can apply online via the Help to Buy North West website (www.helptobuynw.co.uk) or call one of our sales team on 0330 995 1333, who will be happy to run through the eligibility criteria with you.
