Seeing Shared Ownership headlines like this gives us all the feels on a Friday.
Our Managing Director, Kelly McCabe, has been featured in national press coverage by The Mirror, sharing her insight on the current housing and mortgage market. As one of the UK's leading voices in Shared Ownership and affordable homeownership, Kelly works closely with lenders, housing associations and policymakers to help improve access to the property ladder. Her latest comments, published by The Mirror, highlight the challenges and opportunities facing buyers in today's market.
Mirror Quote: "Kelly McCabe, Managing Director at The Mortgage People, said she is increasingly seeing customers using the scheme following major life changes such as divorce, separation, downsizing or changes in household income."
She said: “Shared ownership continues to play an important role in helping people access the housing market at a time when affordability remains one of the biggest barriers to homeownership."
“While it is often associated with first-time buyers, the reality is that shared ownership supports a much broader range of people and circumstances."
“Like any housing scheme, it is important that buyers fully understand the costs involved, including rent and service charges alongside the mortgage, and take advice to ensure it suits their circumstances and long-term plans."
“For many people, shared ownership is not simply a stepping stone, but a sustainable form of homeownership that provides stability, security and an opportunity to continue owning a home in a market that has become increasingly difficult to access outright.”
