Selling your shared ownership home

Selling your shared ownership home is called a resale. You can sell your property at any time.

While your lease might state an eight-week nomination period for introducing a buyer, Warwick District Council currently doesn't require this. Once you’ve informed us of your decision to sell and completed the necessary paperwork, you can list your property with your chosen estate agent.

Before marketing your home, we'll need a valuation from a RICS surveyor. This determines your property's market value and the value of your share. The selling price cannot exceed the market value.

Your buyer must qualify for the shared ownership scheme. They'll go through the same application process you did when you bought the property. We need to assess and approve their application before solicitors can start the legal process.
