Due to the government funding involved in this scheme, any prospective purchaser wishing to be considered for the shared ownership option will be required to submit an application form to us for assessment. Part of that assessment will be to supply evidence from a mortgage lender, i.e. a mortgage in principle of the maximum amount they can borrow, to show that they cannot afford to buy outright on the open market in the area. For your information, the property cannot be sold as shared ownership to a current homeowner or for investment purposes.
Please be advised that it is within the HCA guidance to maximise all shares. We are required to maximise shares purchased based on a potential buyers’ affordability and individual circumstances ie: additional staircasing may be required in addition to the share being advertised.
The new owner will carry on the rental agreement for the remaining percentage as detailed within the lease.
The current rent for a 45% share would be £302.50
Building insurance £9.38
Management charge £25.15
Service charge £11.69
Total monthly amount due would therefore be £394.94
Payment must be made by direct debit. Our charges are reviewed annually in April.

On the popular shared ownership scheme you are able to purchase a share of the house and then pay the housing Association (Longhurst Group) rent on the remaining share which has not been purchased. There is then the option to purchase further shares until you own 100% in the future, this is a process called staircasing. To qualify for Shared Ownership, you must meet the following criteria: - Your annual gross household income is less than £80,000 - Unable to purchase a suitable property for your housing needs on the open market. If your application is successful a reservation fee of £250 is required securing the property to the accepted applicant for a period of 8 weeks. Within this timeframe all accepted applicants are required to be in a position to, and where possible, exchange on the property.
