YOUR GUIDE TO SHARED OWNERSHIP
Shared Ownership is designed to help those who would like to buy a home of their own, but who can’t afford to buy it outright. It offers a first step on the property ladder for anyone who wants to own their own home.
It is a part buy part rent scheme which can give you the opportunity to buy a share of a new home. You buy a share in the property and the Housing Association owns the remaining share for which you pay a subsidised rent. THE COMBINED MORTGAGE REPAYMENTS AND RENT WILL ALWAYS BE LESS THAN A MORTGAGE ON A WHOLE PROPERTY.
The initial share is a % and once you have owned the property for a specific amount of time, you can purchase additional shares (%) until you own the property outright (depending on the Housing Association guidelines).
You can sell the property at any time and the price will be based on an open market valuation determined by an independent valuer.
DO I QUALIFY?
To qualify for Shared Ownership you should be able to raise a mortgage for the share you are buying and to be able to afford the monthly ongoing costs of living in your new home including the subsidised rent.
Your ability to qualify for a mortgage will be affected by your credit history. It will not always be possible to obtain a mortgage if you have experienced serious credit problems in the past.
The amount you need to be earning will vary but you may not be eligible if the Housing Association feel that you could afford to buy a suitable property outright.
Usually you should be a first time buyer or somebody with an affordable housing need. Your name should not be on any existing mortgage.
You will need to complete a Housing Association application form.
INITIAL COSTS
Most people need to secure a mortgage to pay for their share of a new home. The maximum mortgage available is generally 95% of the purchase price of your share so you will need at least 5% of the price for a deposit. There are different types of mortgages available so you might find it easier to ask a mortgage adviser to find the best deal for you.
We have access to the services of local Independent Mortgage Advisers who are experts in Shared Ownership mortgages. If you would like their contact details, please let us know.
Your mortgage lender will normally need you to have a mortgage valuation carried out for which you may need to pay. There may also be a Mortgage Arrangement Fee, which could be between £500 - £1,000 based on a 95% loan depending on the lender and product.
You will need to instruct a solicitor when you buy a home. You should make sure you find a solicitor who has experience of Shared Ownership properties. We will happily recommend a solicitor to you if required.
