Hi all, seen a shared ownership flat that takes my fancy and will be making inquiries tomorrow. Just a quick question re. gearing levels as I don't have Sarnie's e-mail to hand in this computer plus some general consensus:

Vague details below:

75% share
just under 4x salary multiple needed
Sole applicant
Payments at 6% would remain very affordable (stress tested)
London Postcode

The problem is the deposit.....I have 5% (can maybe stretch to 10% at a push but would rather not...) would this be possible?

Aim to keep a longer term 30/35 years but allow uncapped overpayments?

Any advice greatly appreciated, Thanks, Kieran

Yes, Nationwide will accept a 5% deposit on the share being purchased.
