How long will I have to wait? How much rent do I pay? What do I do if I want to find out more? Who is eligible for the schemes? Who maintains the property? How long will I have to wait? This is extremely hard to answer. There are many applicants interested in shared ownership on the register, but their needs, choice of area and priority are varied. We cannot say how long any applicant may have to wait. How much rent do I pay? This depends upon the property and the share you buy. As a rough guide, for each £1000 of property you rent, the charge would be about £1 per week. So for example, if you bought the property at £120,000 on a 50% share, the amount you would rent would be £60,000. The rent would therefore be around £60 per week.
