Shared Ownership offers aspiring buyers the opportunity to buy a share of a home’s value, between 25% and 75%, while paying a subsidised rent on the remaining share. The lower deposit level required with the Shared Ownership scheme, means buyers need only put down a deposit on the share they purchase and not the full market value of the property. Shared Ownership means you can become a homeowner with a lower level of savings than if you were to buy the same home outright. Buyers can also choose to buy additional shares on their property as and when they can afford to, right up to 100%.
The exclusive two-bedroom apartment at Greenstock Lane is priced at £114,375 for a 25% share of the full market value of £457,500. For more information, contact Notting Hill Genesis on 020 3815 2222, or visit the website: www.nhgsales.com.
