New Build HomeBuy Mortgages

New Build HomeBuy mortgage or shared ownership mortgage as they are often referred to, are mortgage schemes whereby you can 'part buy, part rent' a newly built property from the Housing Association.

How does New Build HomeBuy work?

Initially you will buy anywhere from 25% to 75% and then pay 'below market rent' on the outstanding share of the property. The rent will be payable to the housing associaition who will therefore partly own your home.

As your financial situation improves you will be able to increase the shares that you own in the property by 'staircasing' and buying more of your property. In most cases you are encouraged to do this and eventually buy your property outright.

Who is eligible for the New Build HomeBuy Scheme?

The New Build HomeBuy Scheme is open to all key workers and existing housing tenants as well as those in with priority housing needs. The scheme has recently been opened up to first time buyers earning less than £60,000.
