Shared Ownership makes buying your dream home more affordable.
With high house prices, large deposits and lenders unwilling to lend, the prospect of buying your own home can seem like an impossible dream.
Don’t worry, there are a number of other options to consider. Shared ownership is one of them.
Basically, you buy a share of the home (usually around 50%) and the rest of it belongs to us, Peaks & Plains Housing Trust.
You pay a mortgage for the percentage that you own, and you pay us rent on the rest.
You get all the security of owning your home and you get to make a start on the property ladder, but you only have to pay a fraction of the total asking price.
You can buy a home through Shared Ownership if your household earns £80,000 a year or less and any of the following apply:
