If you would like to purchase your home but can't quite afford it, share ownership may be something of interest to you.

Shared ownership enables you to purchase a share of your property through the use of a mortgage, whilst paying rent on the remaining share you do not own. As time progresses you can purchase additional shares on the property and eventually own the property outright.

Although you may not own your home outright, you will have the normal rights and responsibilities as a full owner-occupier.

This is an attractive proposition for first time buyers and those who cannot afford to purchase their homes outright.

A helpful leaflet produced by the Housing Corporation may provide you with further details about Shared Ownership and what it involves - click here
