Shared Ownership – Purchaser Eligibility Please note: This property is subject to specific shared ownership eligibility criteria and all purchasers will need to be approved by the management company before proceeding.

Prospective purchasers should be aware of the following key requirements:

Age & Lease Requirements: Applicants must meet the conditions contained within the lease, including the relevant minimum age requirement (typically 55+). Depending on the lease, this may also apply to anyone else who will occupy the property. Applicants may also be required to demonstrate that they are able to live independently.

Need for Shared Ownership: Applicants must demonstrate that they are unable to purchase a suitable property outright and therefore require affordable home ownership.

Shared Ownership – Purchaser Eligibility Savings & Capital: The majority of available savings/capital will normally need to be contributed towards the purchase (typically at least 60%). As a guide, a sole applicant may retain up to £100,000, or £125,000 for joint applicants, towards future living or care costs. Applications outside these guidelines may be considered individually where the lease permits.

Existing Homeowners: Any existing property will normally need to be sold before completion, as this property must become the purchaser's only home.

Proof of Funds: Applicants will be required to provide evidence of how the purchase will be funded, which may include proof of savings, mortgage offer/Agreement in Principle, gifted funds and/or a Memorandum of Sale for an existing property.

IMPORTANT: All applications are assessed individually by the management company. Meeting the above criteria does not automatically guarantee approval to purchase.

Agent Note Please Note: Some photographs within this listing have been digitally enhanced with virtual staging and furniture to demonstrate the potential use, layout and presentation of the rooms.
