Shared Ownership
If you have an existing shared ownership mortgage with us you may be able to borrow more money against your property, subject to consent from your housing association.
Important things you need to know:
- You can purchase a share of up to 75% of the property from your housing association
- For anything over 75%, you'd need to staircase to 100% ownership of the property. As you'd own 100% of the property, you'd no longer be eligible for a shared ownership mortgage. We'd treat this as a new residential mortgage application
- If you’re borrowing to buy additional shares we’ll lend up to 90% of the value of your new share including your existing mortgage
- If you’re borrowing for any other reason we’ll lend up to 90% of the value of your existing share
- We don't allow additional borrowing for debt consolidation on shared ownership mortgages
