Shared ownership

Shared ownership allows you to buy a share in a property with a housing association and pay a subsidised rent on the remaining share.

Ownership can be of different amounts.  For example;

• Buyer 25% and housing association 75%
• Buyer 50% and housing association 50%
• Buyer 75% and housing association 25%

You can increase your share during the time of ownership; this is called 'staircasing'.
