Information about shared ownership homes
Shared ownership offers those who can’t afford to buy a home through a traditional mortgage, the opportunity to buy a share of it.
You will pay rent, to cover the percentage of the property that you do not own. The more of the property you have a share in, the lower your rental payments will be. Further shares can be purchased and outright ownership is possible.
You can learn more about shared ownership and register your interest in shared ownership at the Starboard Way housing development.
