Shared Ownership
Shared ownership is the term usually applied to purchases made with the help of a housing association or "registered social landlord".
These schemes are useful if you cannot afford the whole cost of a property but would like to own a share (25% to 75%) and pay a subsidised rent on the other percentage owned by the housing association.
At some time in the future, you have the option of buying more of your share in the property, but at the market value at the time, This is known as staircasing.
There are a number of lenders who are willing to lend on this basis.
