What is Shared Ownership?

Homes at Heather Fields are available through Shared Ownership, a part rent part buy affordable buying option. Find out more about Shared Ownership below.

About Shared Ownership

Shared Ownership helps first-time buyers get onto the property ladder in a more affordable way. You can usually buy an initial share of 25% to 75% of the value of a home, and you’ll need to take out a mortgage to pay for your share of the home’s purchase price.

You will then pay a subsidised rent on the share you don’t own, and there will also be a service charge to make up the monthly cost of buying through Shared Ownership. 

By buying through Shared Ownership, you will need a smaller deposit compared to buying on the open market. It will also make you an owner-occupier in your home giving you the same responsibilities as a home owner.
