Other Information
The property is being sold as a 30% shared ownership based on the full asking price of £185,000. Prospective clients must be registered with Help to Buy South West and meet their eligibility criteria.
Monthly rent is currently £365.96

This property at £55,500 represents the 30% share in the property you can purchase, for which you will fund via your own means; mortgage for example, and the other 70% is owned by Aster Housing who will charge an additional rent of £334.52 per month. You can purchase a larger share of the property all the way up to 100% (Stair casing Ownership) so you own it out right during your period of ownership. The scheme is designed to assist people to get onto the market who cannot raise a mortgage for the full price of a property like this, and therefore have the chance to purchase it, but only need to raise 30% of the price on a mortgage and they can then rent the other 70% until such time as they can purchase more. More details of this scheme are available via our office. The shared ownership scheme is NOT available to second home, or buy to let investors. Before any offer is accepted a successful application via Aster must be cleared.

This property currently has a remaining lease term of 84 years. There is an option of a simultaneous lease extension and sale where the cost of the lease extension premium and legal fees would be added to the property value. The lease extension would be carried out alongside the sale benefiting the buyer and increase the term to 174 years on completion.

The total premium payable on the 30% share owned £881.70 plus solicitors fees at £750 + VAT comes to a total of £1781.70 and would be added to the property value.

Lease length remaining approximately 234 years
Service Charge - £254.10 per month
