Shared Ownership. Take a NU look.

Shared Ownership gives first time buyers and those that do not currently own a home the opportunity to purchase a share in a new build property. You pay a mortgage on the share you own, and a subsidised rent on the remaining share. Because you only need a mortgage for the share you buy, the amount of money required for a deposit is a lot lower when compared to the amount that would be required when purchasing outright.
