How much deposit will I need?

One of the benefits of shared ownership is significantly lower deposits. Your deposit is calculated based on the size of the share you will be purchasing. You only need to put down 5% of the total value of your share. For example, if you were buying a 50% share at £100,000, your deposit would be £5,000.
