  • Hey,
    My shared ownership mortgage is with HSBC - if you ring their call centre they will be able to quote for you. I have a 3.88% tracker. Before this I was with Abbey who also accept s/o mortgages. I dont think is something the websites really make mention of so you will prob have to speak with the lenders directly or a mortgage advisor
  • Thanks Ellie, ill give them a call tomo!

  • We're with the Leeds. Their website is fully self-explanatory for SO mortgages. HTH

    I got mine through Nationwide - it was by far and away the best deal at the time and they are one of the few to do shared ownership. I went to mortgage advisors - but got the best deal just by ringing up myself!
  • Thanks guys, just checked out Leeds but shocked at the rate. over 7%!!!! No way will go there!

    SRH nationwide - any idea what deposit and rates they have?

    Really? We got ours fixed for 5yrs at 4.99... But that was 3 years ago.

    Good Luck :)

    Hi , we're with kent reliance who've won a few awards for shared ownership. We're on a variable rate and they've honoured every rate cut in full so far, unlike many other lenders. Our current rate is 2.75% :) Found the customer service excellent and can overpay without penalty :) Very happy with them.

    Sadly I think you'll find that's not the case anymore. Halifax and Nationwide are the only 2 major ones.

    I've just phoned up the HSBC and they said they don't offer SO mortgages.
