Shared ownership

If you're looking for an affordable way to buy a home, shared ownership could be just the thing for you.

When you purchase a home through shared ownership, you will pay for a percentage share of the home. This is usually between 10% and 75% of the home’s total market value.contact us

You will typically pay for the percentage share of your home with a mortgage, so you must consider if you can afford these repayments.

On the remaining share, you enter into a lease agreement with us and agree to pay rent and a service charge.

  • Home contents insurance

    Havebury does not cover your contents as part of your agreement. Therefore, it’s a good idea to consider taking out contents insurance. No matter how careful you are, there’s always a risk that your belongings could be broken, damaged or stolen. Home contents insurance can help provide peace of mind should the worst happen.
