Owing a home is a dream come true for many people. With the economy as it is, it is becoming a distant dream for many more people. However, it is now possible to own Edinburgh property without having to take out a large loan. The Edinburgh City Council is now making it possible to own property at a low cost.
Shared ownership is an answer to the prayers of many people who would not have otherwise been able to save and buy property. It is a system through which people can own Edinburgh property without having to pay for the whole property. The purchaser of the home owns only a part of the home. This portion is given as a percentage. You can therefore pay the council a certain percentage of the homes value to own the home alongside the council. You will however be required to pay rent just as you would in a rental property since you only own a portion of the property. Percentages of ownership vary from 10% to 75%. It all depends on how much you can come up with.
The selection process however, is quite rigorous. You will have to download forms from the council website, fill and submit them for consideration.
