What are the benefits of shared ownership?

● As you are purchasing a share in a property, you will only need to find a mortgage for the share you are buying i.e. 50%. This not only means that you need to find a smaller deposit in order to get a mortgage, but the combined mortgage and rent costs should be less than if you had a mortgage for the full property value.

For example:

£100k property value = £10k (10%) deposit = £575 mortgage pcm*

50% share of £100k property = £50k = £5k (10%) deposit = £285 mortgage pcm* + £210 rent = £495 pcm

Saving - £5K deposit + £80 per month

● As the remaining share of the property is owned by a Housing Association, they are able to provide support, and should you find homeownership a struggle, provide an extra safety net and peace of mind.

● SYHA’s expenditure is independently audited which ensures their rental income is appropriately spent and also protects against inappropriate rises in rent.

● As the property value increases, your equity share increases, earning you profit on your share of the property.

● You have total control of the running of the property and can make any cosmetic changes, as you wish.

● You can buy a bigger share of the property, in manageable chunks, until you eventually own 100%.
