How Does Shared Ownership Work? - Shared Ownership is a government scheme that offers you the chance to buy a share of a property from a social housing, a non-profit-making body that provides homes. Because you only own a part of the property, you can buy it with a smaller deposit and mortgage. The Share you buy is based on your individual affordability

A smaller mortgage means smaller repayments but you’ll also need to pay:

- rent on the share of the property you do not yet own
- monthly service charges
Shared Ownership homes can be new builds, existing properties, houses or flats. All Shared Ownership properties are leasehold, even houses.

Shared Ownership Information - Shared ownership is a part buy part rent property from a registered landlord
You purchase a share with the help of a mortgage based on your affordability.
