1. Things to consider

Purchasing your own home could be a housing option for you but before you can do this, you will need to consider the steps you need to take to buy.

You will need to consider how much you can borrow, your credit rating, other associated costs such as home insurance, etc. You will need a solicitor to do your legal work for you and should consider getting independent mortgage advice. Here is a handy guide from Shelter Scotland for those considering buying a home.

2. Support to purchase a home

The Scottish Government has shared ownership/equity scheme available to support for those who qualify to purchase a home. Find out more information at shared ownership.
