What is the typical interest rate on a Shared Ownership mortgage?

The rates table above gives a good indication of the typical rates you can get, which aren’t too dissimilar to a rate you could expect if you were purchasing the entirety of a property versus just a portion of it.

Of course various factors will be at play to determine whether you’ll qualify for the best rate deals on offer. Ideally you want to present as a low risk borrower – with steady income, good credit and a healthy deposit.

The lowest rate illustrated in our table would also indicate that interest rates roughly in line with the new Bank of England base rate are not out of the question. The percentage of the property you’re planning to purchase will also be a factor.

What rate to expect if you’re remortgaging

Remortgaging onto a new Shared Ownership deal, will likely mean incurring a higher interest rate, potentially around 6%.

This is because the number of lenders offering Shared Ownership remortgages is smaller, which means there’s less motivation to offer competitive rates.

Should you be increasing the share of the property you own though, more lenders will be available, which means access to better rates.
