Shared Ownership is a Help to Buy initiative established by the government to assist applicants who are experiencing financial difficulties and cannot afford to obtain a full mortgage. The share you can buy is usually between 25% and 75%. You can buy a 10% share on some homes, and subsequently repay the remaining percentage through rental payments.
These rental payments will be made to the Housing Association or Builder or who owns the remaining percentage of the property. Shared Ownership can be a complex scheme, so it may be handy to seek advice from a Shared Ownership mortgage advisor in Newcastle. You can easily book a free mortgage appointment through our website by clicking on our ‘Book Now’ button.
To determine your eligibility for the program, we must assess your qualifications. If you do not meet the criteria for this initiative, we suggest investigating alternative government schemes that are accessible. Our primary recommendation is the Help to Buy Equity Loan scheme, which is an excellent option for first time homebuyers in Newcastle. Listed below are the requirement for the Shared Ownership scheme:
Shared Ownership is itself a mortgage, and you will make monthly payments to pay it off. Additionally, you will also need to make rental payments on the remaining share of the property to the housing association.
To utilise Shared Ownership, you must be a first time buyer, and you cannot own another property. It’s also important to note that you can only apply for a Shared Ownership mortgage on a new build property, which will be leasehold.

Shared Ownership is a mortgage scheme that allows you to purchase a percentage of a property and pay rent for the remaining share. You can apply for a Shared Ownership mortgage on 25% to 75% of the property value. For instance, if you take out a mortgage on 65% of the property, you will make mortgage payments on this amount and pay rent on the remaining 35%.
Since you are taking out a mortgage on a percentage of the property, you only must put down a deposit on this total. If the minimum deposit that you are required to put down is 5%, your deposit on a share of 25%-75% will be cheaper than a deposit on 100% of the property price.
If you have bad credit in Newcastle, you may face challenges in qualifying for the Shared Ownership scheme. Most lenders do not accept applicants with poor credit ratings. However, there are specialist lenders who cater to bad credit applicants or those with low credit scores. Our mortgage advisors in Newcastle can help you explore these options to find a suitable deal for your financial situation.

Yes, you need a deposit for a Shared Ownership mortgage. In most scenarios, you will need a deposit for any type of mortgage.
The deposit amount that you will have to put down will vary depending on the percentage that you own. For example, if your property is valued at £300,000 and you own a 50% mortgage share, you will need to put down a deposit on £7,500 of the property.
Similar to all mortgage types, when it comes to Shared Ownership you will have to account for lots of different costs. Of course, you have to consider your monthly repayments, both rent and mortgage payments. On top of this, you will also have to factor in property survey costs, arrangement fees and legal fees.
One of our mortgage advisors in Newcastle will be more than happy to break down these costs for you.
Unfortunately, only a number of selected properties are available via the Shared Ownership scheme. The property has to either be a new build, a property that is already under shared ownership and is being resold or a property that meets specialist needs like a ground floor flat for someone with a long-term disability.
