New Build HomeBuy

What is New Build HomeBuy?

New Build HomeBuy formerly known as Shared Ownership is a Government funded scheme that makes home ownership available to first time buyers. The scheme enables first time buyers to purchase a share (usually 50% but some schemes have the benefit of higher and lower shares) in a new home and pay a discounted rent on the remaining share.

Priority will usually be given to council tenants, those who are tenants of a Registered Social Landlord or people who are registered on a Local Authority Housing waiting list.

Resales

Resales are properties which have already been purchased on a shared ownership basis and the shared owner wishes to sell their share.
