Important Shared Ownership and Staircasing Information

Prospective purchasers should be aware that the property is offered on a shared ownership basis and that the purchase price of £96,000 represents a 40% share only. The full market value of the property is £240,000.

Staircasing

Shared ownership owners may have the right to purchase additional shares in the future, known as "staircasing", subject to the lease provisions and housing association requirements.

The cost of additional shares is based upon the current market value at the time of staircasing, not the original purchase price:

If property values rise, additional shares may cost more.
If property values fall, additional shares may cost less.
Potential Benefits of Staircasing
Reduced rent payments on the remaining housing association share.
Increased ownership and equity in the property.
Greater control over the property as ownership increases.
Potentially easier resale options at higher ownership levels.
In many schemes, staircasing to 100% ownership removes the rent element entirely.
Important Considerations

Purchasers should seek independent financial and legal advice before deciding whether staircasing is appropriate.

Factors to consider include:

Future property value changes.
Valuation fees.
Legal and conveyancing costs.
Mortgage and remortgage requirements.
Lease restrictions and housing association requirements.
Stamp Duty Land Tax implications.
Valuation validity periods and transaction timescales.
Resale Information

If the property remains in shared ownership, the housing association may retain nomination rights and pre-emption rights in accordance with the lease. Buyers should review the lease carefully and take independent legal advice before proceeding.

Disclaimer: All staircasing rights, costs, restrictions and eligibility requirements are subject to the terms of the lease and the housing association's policies. Prospective purchasers must undertake their own investigations and obtain professional legal and financial advice.

Price: £96,000 for a 40% share (Based on a full market value of £240,000). Subject to eligibility and housing association approval.
