Your Path to Homeownership

What is a Shared Ownership Mortgage?

A shared ownership mortgage allows you to buy a share of a property while paying rent on the remaining share. This option is ideal for first-time buyers or those looking to step onto the property ladder without the burden of full ownership costs.
With shared ownership, you can purchase between 25% to 75% of a property, making it a more affordable way to own your home. You can later increase your ownership share through a process called staircasing.
