What options are available to own a home through Sanctuary?
If you currently rent your home from us, but are interested in taking the steps towards owning a home, then there are a few options available to you:
Right to Buy
If you rent an ex-council house with Sanctuary as a secure tenant or an assured tenant with a protected Right to Buy, then you may be able to buy your current home at a discounted rate under the government’s Right to Buy scheme.
Shared Ownership
Shared ownership is a government-funded scheme to help first-time buyers. It allows you to buy between 25% and 75% of a home using a mortgage, and pay rent on the remaining share. You can choose to buy further shares in the property later, when you can afford it.
Shared Ownership is a scheme that will support you to buy a home, but it wouldn’t be your current home.
We may have some shared ownership properties for sale near you. Visit our New Homes website to find out more.
