Shared Ownership is a great way to buy a home especially if you want to get on the property ladder quickly and without the hefty upfront payments. Allowing you to part-buy, part-rent, you only put down a deposit on the portion you want to buy, meaning you won’t have to worry about saving up for another lifetime to afford that 10% deposit. You can also buy more of your property over time allowing you to move up the property ladder, without  moving at all. The scheme is government backed and with brand new homes, apartments and detached houses on the market there’s lots of reasons to get in the know about this house buying method.
