What is Shared Ownership?

While it might seem a bit complicated at first, shared ownership is actually pretty straightforward!

To put it very simply, shared ownership allows you to buy a share of your ideal Avant home and pay an affordable monthly rent repayment on the remaining part.

You decide how much of the home you would like to buy (up to 75% of the purchase price) and will then pay small monthly payments based on the remaining percentage.

You can buy your share either using cash from any savings you may have or by taking out a mortgage. If you are taking out a mortgage to finance your share, you will need to allow for a minimum of 5% deposit.

For example, if you want to buy 20% (£50,000) of a £250,000 property, you will only need to put down 5% (£2,500) of said £50,000.

Of course, the larger your deposit (typically 10%), the lower your mortgage repayments are likely to be. Your budget will determine the size of the share you buy, rather than the size of your home.

Therefore, you might decide to buy a bigger share of a lower priced home or a smaller share of a more expensive home. In short, the choice is yours!

For the share you don’t buy, a shared ownership partner will become your landlord and will grant you a lease. This means you will be able to live in the home as if you've bought it outright and simply pay them a low monthly rent.

What’s great about the shared ownership scheme is that you can increase your share at any time, which will then also help reduce your rental payments on the balance.
