Shared ownership

Do I need to live or work locally to qualify for a shared ownership home? And if so, what is the definition of a local connection – does it mean living/working in the same borough?

Besides the general eligibility criteria, additional criteria are often specified by the various Local Authorities, therefore, we recommend you check the property listing for the criteria of the scheme you are interested in.

A local area connection means you live or/and work in the borough, or you may have relatives who live there.
