Information For Buyers

Sanctuary, as Landlord, have a responsibility to ensure applicants can afford to buy and maintain regular payments on their new home. As part of the Shared Ownership application process, they carry out affordability assessments on all Shared Ownership applicants. All Shared Ownership applications are considered in an impartial, equitable and consistent manner in accordance with Homes England’s guidance. We work with independent advisors who carry out the affordability assessment. Applicants will be assessed on affordability and eligibility for the scheme.

Affordability

Affordability:
Mortgage costs should be no more than 30% of net household income. This figure will not be considered in isolation, but it can be a strong guide of an applicant’s affordability.
Applicants should have 10% of their monthly salary left after all household costs.
If applicants are unable to obtain a mortgage, or there is no appropriate mortgage product available, but they have sufficient savings, then they can purchase their share in cash. As with all other applicants, they will be referred to an advisor to confirm that they are either unable to obtain a mortgage or that a suitable mortgage is not available.
Whilst applicants are expected to use any savings, assets, investments, etc, in their purchase, this does mean that they are permitted to retain a reasonable level of savings.
Whilst we are keen to help applicants succeed, if we feel, in conjunction with our appointed independent advisors that the purchase will be difficult to maintain, we will not agree to the purchase.

Eligibility

Eligibility:
To be eligible for the Shared Ownership scheme, you generally need to meet the following criteria:
Your annual household income can be no more than £80,000 (£90,000 in London).
You are unable to purchase a home suitable for your needs without assistance.
