I tried posting a post but it didnt post, so here it is again ...
Im going to view a house tomorrow:
http://www.zoopla.co.uk/new-homes/details/40689715#7q9g6AX51oYm03kd.97 Its overpriced and tiny. As such they have very little interest in them, but its still at the bottom of my current list of 4 houses unless they would be willing to reduce the price a lot.
Actually the max price doesnt matter - buying more shares in a shared property home depends on a new current valuation. If they valuate the property as being lower, you save a lot. If it goes up, you have to pay more. And I would get housing benefit to pay for the rent on the shared part.
Hmmmm, might be worth snagging one of these then as shared ownership is all I can afford for a decent quality house, and the ones higher up on my list have a lot more interest in them.
Oh wait, the everyone here will know where Im living. Oops.
