**New two bedroom home in Batley, ready to move into, available with Shared Ownership. Contact the Incommunities Sales Team for more information**.

The Adlington is a lovely new build two-bedroom, semi-detached home, available with SHARED OWNERSHIP. **£58,757.50 is for a 25% share**, the full value of Plot 158 is £234,950. Other share options are available: the share you purchase is based on your affordability. Rent is payable on the remaining share - see below for details. 

**What is Shared Ownership?**

Shared Ownership is a more affordable way to buy your own home. You purchase a share of the property through a mortgage and savings -anywhere from 10% to 75%, depending on what you can afford. We own the remaining share, and you pay reduced rent on the part you don't own.

To buy your share, you'll need a mortgage or savings to cover the cost. If you're using a mortgage, your deposit is just 5% of the share you're buying, not the full property value.

 

**Am I eligible for Shared Ownership?**

You'll qualify for Shared Ownership if you meet the criteria below:

Your household income is £80,000 a year or less

You cannot afford all of the deposit and mortgage payments for a home that meets your needs

You're a first-time buyer, or

You're an existing shared owner and want to move, or

You used to own a home, but need support to buy one now

**Can I buy more shares?**

The great thing about Shared Ownership is that you can buy a larger share of the property whenever you can afford it. The more you own, the less rent you pay. The cost of the shares is based on the market value of your home at the time you want to buy them.
