Some lenders are currently requesting their own additional certification before approving mortgages and remortgages, which ISHA and other building owners cannot always provide. We have recently written to homeowners about this – please see the letter for more information.

Buyers should also read the letter because some lenders are requesting the additional certification before approving new mortgages.

UPDATE: Since the above letter was written, the Chancellor has announced additional funds for building safety in his Budget. We are awaiting further details of this announcement before we can understand or explain its implications.

The Government continues to review building safety. For more information on this, the EWS1 form created by lenders, and ISHA’s response, please read our latest update

With our shared ownership homes you pay for a share of between 25% and 75% of the home’s value depending on the share we are offering on a particular development.

Shared Ownership is for people who want to own their own home but can't afford to buy on the open market.

Once you purchase your share ISHA owns the remaining share of the value of your home on which you will pay a subsidised rent. Our initial annual rent is normally based on up to 2.75% of the value that you do not own. This means outgoings are lower than for the same property on the open market if you buy with a mortgage. As you buy more of the property, your rent will reduce.

Shared ownership properties are sold on a leasehold basis. The lease is normally up to 125 years. The lease sets out your rights and responsibilities, and those of the landlord.
