Shared Ownership is a government-backed scheme that helps people get on the property ladder. You start by buying just a share of your home. You'll typically only need a 5% deposit of the share you purchase, making it more affordable to get started. Buying a smaller share also means it can be easier to secure a mortgage and take your first step onto the property ladder.
You can buy more shares of your home at any time in the future, working towards owning your home outright.
You can add locations as 'My Places' and save them to your account. These are locations you wish to commute to and from, and you can specify the maximum time of the commute and by which transport method.
