How It Works

As a community land trust, Uppingham Homes will offer housing to those who meet the relevant eligibility criteria and have a need for the type of housing we offer. We provide an alternative route to property ownership outside of what is available on the open property market.

• primarily be between the ages of 18 and 35 at the time of purchase

• be unable to purchase, outright or with a mortgage, a home of suitable size and location for their household needs on the open property market

• have a household income of no more than £80, 000

• be able to meet the one-off costs involved and through capital or mortgage be able to fund their share of the purchase 

• be able to demonstrate a housing need

For more information please see the shared ownership - sales, re-sales and allocations housing policy.
