Shared Ownership, what is it and how does it work?
McCarthy Stone Shared Ownership is run in conjunction with Homes England and we work closely with them to provide this opportunity. With this scheme you can pay up to 75% of the full property value, and if you own 75% there's no rent to pay on the rest.
It's not charity, it's not a handout, it's just what you deserve to help you make the most of your retirement. After a lifetime of looking after others, it's your time now.
"It's an excellent option, we honestly didn't think we would ever be able to live here"
