This guidance is for: lenders, shared ownership providers and conveyancers.

The CML has produced joint guidance with the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) and National Housing Federation (NHF) which provides information on the rules and requirements of grant funded shared ownership. This version was updated in October 2016. 

This Shared Ownership Guidance has been updated to reflect changes to the administration of shared ownership, and provides information for: 

• Mortgage lenders in England; 

• Registered Providers (RPs) offering shared ownership: this includes Housing Associations and Local? Authorities which provide shared ownership housing; 

• Unregistered bodies offering shared ownership; and 

• Conveyancers in England
