Property Type: Three bedroom mid terrace house with two tandem parking spaces

Scheme: Shared Ownership Resale

Full Market Value: £265,000

Share Purchase Price and Rent Example

The share purchase price is calculated using the full market value and the percentage share purchased.

If you buy a 40% share, the share purchase price will be £106,000, and the rent will be £382.66 per month.

Your annual rent is calculated at 2.89% of the remaining share of the full market value owned by the landlord.

Please note that the rent is only calculated as a percentage of the retained equity when the lease is first granted. As this is a resale property, annual rent reviews will have taken place, meaning the current rent no longer directly reflects the percentage of retained equity. Full details of rent review periods and calculations are contained within the lease documentation.

All figures are subject to change.

Monthly Payments to the Landlord

In addition to the monthly rent, the following charges apply:

Service Charge: £0.00
Estate Charge: £0.00
Buildings Insurance: £15.64
LiveWest Management Charge: £0.00
Reserve Fund Payment: £0.00

Total monthly payment (excluding rent): £15.64

Please note these charges are subject to change during the purchase process.

Reservation Fee

£500.00

A reservation fee (advanced rent payment) is required to secure the property. Once paid, the property will be reserved exclusively for you.

If your purchase completes, the reservation fee will be credited to your rent account. Should either you or the seller withdraw from the sale, the full £500 reservation fee will be refunded.
