A QUICK GUIDE TO SHARED OWNERSHIP
SHARED OWNERSHIP
Shared Ownership allows you to purchase a share of a property, typically this is between 25% and 75% initially. The share is determined by an affordability assessment where the share % purchased is assessed as affordable to you. The housing association will own the share you do not purchase and you will pay rent at a reduced rate to them.
This option means that you will require a smaller mortgage and in most cases you can purchase with a smaller deposit.
As soon as you are able to afford to purchase more shares in the property, you may do so. The rent payments are then reduced until you own 100% and then there will be no rent to pay to the housing association.
SHARED OWNERSHIP ELIGIBILITY
To be eligible for a shared ownership property you must meet the criteria set by the Government.
The main points to consider are that your household income must not exceed £80,000 per year, although this is increased in London to £90,000 per year.
You must be a first time buyer, a current shared ownership property owner or (in some cases) where your are not able to purchase on the open market due to affordability.
If you are a member of the British Armed Forces, you would normally receive priority for a shared ownership property.

PROTECTION
Now that you have purchased your dream home, it is extremely important to be able to keep it should anything unexpected happen in your life.
If the unthinkable were to occur and you could not work due to ill health, an accident, loss of income or even in the event of death, how would it affect you or your family's ability to continue to pay the mortgage and bills on your current level of savings?
Most people see "insurance" as a waste of money, or think "it will never happen to me." Part of the home buying process is to complete a full financial review, it will then be apparent the level of income you will require to continue living in the manner which you are planning.
The types of protection that could be available to you should a claimable event occur are but not limited to:
Life Cover- Lump sum payable on death.
Critical Illness Cover- Lump sum payable on diagnosis of specific illnesses.
Income Protection- Pays a monthly income, if you are unable to work following an accident or illness.
Family Income Benefit- Provides an income for your family in the event of death.
Buildings and Contents- provides cover for your home and your belongings.
Why not speak to our specialist to obtain a suitable recommendation for your protection after assessing your needs, suitability and budget.
