Don't buy shared ownership. It's not affordable.

Our service charge is putting off buyers. We can't lower our sale price because of the RICS valuation.
We're stuck.

You can read the written evidence submitted to the Committee on their website.

There is a stark contrast between what registered providers and their representatives say about the shared ownership scheme and the lived experience of shared owners.

Words are cheap @matthewpennycookmp.bsky.social I thought Labour would help.

We're stuck in a one bed flat we will probably never be able to sell.

What are you doing to help shared owners?
