Shared ownership was introduced to help people who cannot afford to buy a property outright. The current government is trying to increase the amount of shared ownership properties available to help young people, particularly key workers such as teachers, nurses, council workers etc to get on the property ladder.
Shared ownership means that you 'buy' a percentage of a property (typically 25%, 50% or 75%) in partnership with a housing association (non profit making organsations) and pay a small rent on the percentage you don't own. Over time you can have the option to purchase the part of the property you rent until you own it outright. This is a great way to get on the housing market at an early stage in areas where property values are high. In time, as your income increases, the higher mortgage payments needed to meet the full 100% ownership of the property should become more affordable for you.
There are several lenders that specialise in mortgages for dhared ownership properties. Also, your employer may offer incentives, particularly if you are moving into an area of high property value.
