Advice For Potential Purchasers - This information has been provided by a third party (Midland Heart).

Shared Ownership is designed for those who want to get a foot on the property ladder but can't afford to buy a home on the open market. It allows you to purchase a share with a mortgage and you will pay a monthly fee to us for the share you don't own.

Shared ownership is designed to help you purchase an initial share in the property and then go on to purchase further shares until you own your own home outright (unless it's in a designed Designated Protected Area and has a restricted covenant that only allows leaseholder's to purchase 80% - for further details on this please contact us directly)

First Step - Mortgage in Principle

We will require sight of your mortgage in principle or if you are a cash buyer evidence that you have available funds to purchase the property.

Second Step - An eligibility and affordability assessment based on the share the existing leaseholder is selling

Please forward us a copy of your completed application form including the income and expenditure form

· 3 x copies of rent wage slips
· 3 x recent bank statement
· Proof of ID (passport or Driving licence)
· Proof of their current address (bill/bank statement or payslip)
· Mortgage in principle

A more detailed affordability assessments will then be carried out to ensure you have sufficient funds required to maintain the home you are interested in buying.

Shared Ownership Information - This information has been provided by a third party (Midland Heart).

If a share of the property is purchased, it is sold as leasehold on a 'fully repairing lease'. This means that the leaseholder will be responsible for all internal and external maintenance and repairs.

The new purchaser who wishes to buy 50% must be approved by Midland Heart. No sale will be able to progress until we have confirmation that the purchaser has met their criteria. Their approval is based on affordability and potential purchasers must meet the following shared ownership criteria;

· Cannot be an investor or a person who is wishes to buy the property as a second home
· Priority will have to be given to first time buyers, housing association tenants and council tenants
· Someone who has a property which is sold subject to contract e.g. a matrimonial breakdown or someone moving to the area for work
· We cannot sell to someone as a shared owner who could afford to buy this property on the open market (unless the seller is purchasing the remaining shares to 100% and simultaneously selling)
· We cannot sell to someone who cannot demonstrate their ability to be able to afford to live in the property and maintain an acceptable level of disposable income
· No 100% or interest only mortgages

Please note that if the purchaser wishes to buy more shares than 50% share, the estate agents must check with the vendor that they are willing to proceed on this basis as additional costs would be incurred by the vendor.

They may only buy further shares at a price certified by an RICS independent surveyor which has been instructed for by us. We will need a written valuation which must be less than three months old at completion. The leaseholder would be responsible for the valuation cost. If the sale takes longer than three months a further valuation will be required and the sale price might vary.

N.B. Where further shares are being sold to a purchaser, our client is the existing leaseholder. They in turn are selling their new share to the purchaser, this would complete on a back to back transaction which means it all completes on the same day. Our solicitors will act for us in the sale of further shares to the leaseholder, but both the seller and purchaser will also need to instruct their own independent solicitors. We will require early notice of any intention to buy more shares.
