A shared ownership scheme is a government initiative to provide affordable housing. It could enable you to buy a proportion of your home, usually through a housing association. You then pay rent on the rest. For example, if you buy a 50% share of a property valued at £100,000, you then pay rent on the remaining £50,000.

Under the shared ownership scheme, you can purchase a stake in a new-build or existing home with a small deposit. Typically, you buy 25% of the property’s full market value, but this can be as low as just 10%. The maximum stake you can buy under shared ownership is 75%. You then cover the balance with monthly rent paid to a landlord.
