It’s time to slip on the sunglasses and slop on the sunscreen because summer is back and the mercury is rising. Shared Ownership opens up a world of possibilities – helping you put down roots in the place that best matches your dream lifestyle at a cost more affordable than you’d expect. Whether you love getting out in the great outdoors, sipping cocktails in the city sun, dipping your toes in water to cool off or simply soaking up some rays – there’s a Shared Ownership home from L&G that fits the bill.
With Shared Ownership, you buy a percentage of a property – usually between 25% and 75% – then pay a monthly rent on the remaining portion. That means a lower deposit compared to buying on the open market and often lower monthly costs compared to private renting. Sound good? Take a look:
