A Shared Ownership scheme to suit you

Get onto the property ladder with the help of the Home Reach Shared Ownership scheme. With Home Reach, you can buy a share of your chosen Bellway home and pay monthly rent on the part you don’t own. All you need is a 5% deposit and to meet the eligibility requirements.

This scheme is currently only available at Lavender Rise, a development under our South West division.

How the Home Reach Shared Ownership scheme works

With just a 5% deposit, you can purchase a share of a new-build home and make rental payments on the part you don’t own. Initially, you can purchase up to 75% of your new home, but over time, you can buy more shares until you own 100% of the property. The size of your initial share will be calculated via an affordability assessment, which can be carried out by an independent mortgage advisor.

your new home

The rent you pay is calculated as a percentage of the share you don’t own, and will be handled by Heylo – who will become your landlord under a lease agreement.

FAQs

Where is this scheme available?
A.

This scheme is currently only available at Lavender Rise, a development under our South West division.

What is Home Reach?
A.

Home Reach is a Shared Ownership scheme from Heylo where you can purchase up to 75% of the shares of a new-build property. You will then rent the rest of the home and have the option to purchase more shares until you own 100% of the property.

How do I know if I’m eligible for the Home Reach Shared Ownership scheme?
A.

Criteria for eligibility may differ depending on the local authority of your chosen development, but you will go through a registration process – using an online form – where Heylo will gather your details and assess whether you are eligible for the scheme.

How do I increase my share of the home?
A.

Once you’ve completed your initial purchase, you can purchase more shares. This is referred to as ‘staircasing’. You can do this at any time that suits you, all the way up until you own 100% of your home. However, there are sometimes restrictions on staircasing, so it is important to check whether the property you are looking to purchase has a restricted maximum share.
