  • You can enjoy the McCarthy Stone lifestyle without paying the full purchase price.

  • If you buy 75% of the value of the property, there is no rent to pay on the outstanding share.
  • If you buy 50% of the value of the property, you will pay rent on the outstanding share.
  • You could claim up to £500 a year to help with essential repairs in the first 10 years.

With this scheme, you can purchase up to 75% of the value of your property - and if you own 75%, you won't pay any rent on the outstanding 25% share.
