Full details of the scheme
can be found on our consumer website but by way of a summary, here
are the key benefits to a person with disabilities.
 |
A
real
choice of where to live: if the person with disabilities is
living at home with parents and would prefer to move out, Shared Ownership
Homes introduces the possibility of moving close to the family home where
continued close involvement of parents, relatives and friends remains
practicable |
|
Long
term security: residential care homes and tenanted accommodation do not
provide long term security - your own home does! |
|
More
control |
|
Better
quality accommodation with a regulated landlord for the rented share of
the property |
Buying a home with Shared
Ownership Homes means:
|
No
charge to the individual in respect of fees associated with the purchase
of the home: fees such as legal and valuation costs are borne by Shared
Ownership Homes, which in turn are funded by the partners (Housing
Association; Care Purchaser; Lender) |
|
Free
help and advice in all stages of the transaction: to include help with the
completion of mortgage and State Benefits applications |
|
Free
help and advice to find a suitable
property to buy |
