Take one step closer to living in a stunning Shared Ownership home in Gloucestershire through the amazing sales team at Aster Group. Through shared ownership, deposits can be from as little as 5%! So, if the 40% share costs £100,000 then your deposit could be as little as £5,000. It is that simple (and no you don't have to share with anyone else, except maybe your partner, children, or the cat).
Under this scheme, you purchase a share of the property (typically between 25% and 75%) and pay a reduced rent on the remaining share, depending on your lease.
Over time if you wish, you can buy more shares in your home, a process known as “staircasing”, until, if your lease permits and you wish to, you own 100% of it. This approach makes homeownership more accessible for many and serves as a stepping stone towards full homeownership.
This means you only pay the percentage of a property you own with a deposit as low as 5% of the total share amount, you then pay rent on your band new home to us at Aster.
Aster is a leading housing association in the south of England specialising in affordable homes built for shared ownership. We are committed to listening to and working with customers.
