A clear explanation in Private Eye about the problems with Shared Ownership. That this type of ownership is pushed by developers as a way to provide affordable housing is really disingenuous.

01/04/2024

Another example on how commercial developments will never be able to provide guaranteed affordable housing. Shared owners might only have 25% of the equity of the property but they pay 75% of the rent and 100% of the service charge which can be subject to massive hikes as this article illustrates. Shared Ownership means paying to maintain the Housing Associations equity. The only guaranteed way to ensure there is really authentic affordable housing is by Community Land Trusts and councils providing it. We need to prioritise people.

Service charges for shared-ownership houses have rocketed, leaving many unable to pay. We hear their stories
