How does it work?

You can buy as little as 25% of the purchaseprice, and pay rent on the remaining amount. Ifyou buy 75%, you don’t pay any rent at all.Depending on your personal circumstances, youmay be eligible for Housing Benefit.

An affordable service charge also gives you aworry free future covering such items as yourproperty insurance, gardening, window cleaning,communal cleaning, and external and commonarea maintenance and management charges. ASinking Fund will cater for long term needs ofthe building.
