The scheme enables buyers to purchase a share of the value of the home - this is usually between 25 to 75 percent of the value of the property - and pay a subsidised rent on the remaining portion. You have the option to buy a bigger share in the property at a later date (known as Staircasing).Eligibility Criteria:Priority will be given to applicants with a live/work or family connection to the Parish of Alton or East Hampshire District.
