The purchaser pays a mortgage on the share they own and pays rent to a housing association on the remaining share.

Rent and service charges will be reviewed annually by your housing provider, usually on 1st April each year. ** This home can also be purchased outright (100% of the value) which is £132,000 and a purchaser would not need to meet the eligibility criteria listed above.
