Skipton, BD23 6FS

Handily located at The Bailey, near to where the A65 meets the A6131, a desirable location on the edge of the urban area, and therefore on the fringe of open countryside.

Shared Ownership - How It Works and How You Start The Application Process

Shared Ownership allows you to buy a share in a new home, ranging from 40%* to 75%, depending on what you can afford (*please note, buyers are required to purchase the optimum % share that is affordable for them).  Progress Housing will own the remaining share, and you pay a reduced rent on that share.  This means that you will need a smaller deposit and mortgage than if you bought a property outright.  Generally, you are able to buy a bigger property than you may otherwise be able to afford.

You can buy more shares as and when you can afford them - this is called staircasing - and as you buy more shares, you will pay less rent.  You can eventually own 100% of the property if you want to, at which point you will pay no rent at all.  Your repayments could be less than renting privately.

The current service charge is approx. £48pcm and is payable for maintenance of any common areas and to cover buildings insurance.

As a home owner, and in accordance with the terms of your lease, you will be responsible for the maintenance and repairs on your home.  However, as it is a new build your property comes with a 10-year NHBC warranty and many of the appliances will have a 2-year manufacturer's guarantee giving you peace of mind.

Progress Housing will refer you for an initial affordability assessment to determine the % share that is affordable for you both now and in the long term. 

Below is an indication of the price of various shares and the rent payable on the unpurchased equity.
