Shared Ownership Properties For Sale in Smethwick, Birmingham 🏡

Smethwick scheme, you purchase an initial share of the Smethwick property, typically between 25 ,75%, and pay rent on the remaining share that's owned by a Smethwick housing association.  It's a great way to become a homeowner more affordably. I've seen some really nice two bed and terraced houses currently available through shared ownership developments across Birmingham. They've got modern one and two bedroom flats in a desirable area, within walking distance of local amenities. 35% share you're looking at payments as low as £500 a month. With shared ownership, you also have the option to staircase that is, purchase additional shares in the Smethwick property in increments of around 10% at a time. This allows you to eventually own it outright if your financial situation improves. And you get all the benefits of homeownership like gaining equity in the property value from day one. Smethwick housing association will also take care of any major repairs so you won't have to worry about unexpected bills for things like replacing the boiler. I'd really recommend considering shared ownership if you're a first time buyer or young professional looking to get on the Birmingham property ladder. If you want to find out more options in your local area, take a look online or speak to a housing association directly.
