With shared ownership schemes you still need approved for a mortgage if you don't already have the cash to buy your share. If you have a poor credit history then this is unlikely to be an option for you at this point in time.0 -

Some of the brokers on the Mortgages board have said this could be do-able. Why don't you contact one of them?0 -
OP were you unhappy with it, or was the information given to you previously not sufficient?

In which case, just "bump" or "BTTT" (back to the top) your existing threads, so people can see what's gone before, rather than get the same suggestions over and over again...I am a mortgage broker.
