Hi

Does anyone know a list of banks that offer shared owenrship deals?

I'm looking for a 100% deal if this is still possible...

    Hi, I'm a key worker with a lot of friends with shared ownership properties. They all regretted it but one till last week. He is now in negative equity, trapped in a shoe box and now married. He can't move and start his family.

    Really check out these schemes because to most they are a bad idea and just a way for people to overpay for properties.

    No chance to getting both of those...

    For the first question, dunno if you'd heard of "Google" (becoming quite popular with the young folk apparently...) but try this...

    Having said that, be very very wary... Especially if, as you sort-of-indicate (100% deal..) you ain't much savings & will therefore be very-very-very susceptible to property price drops forcing you into negative equity...

    Cheers!
