shared ownership home on UC

3 replies

i have recently split from my partner and after the house sale i should have approx £10k for a deposit on a home

for a few reasons i’m looking into shared ownership but was wondering how it works with universal credit? as i know you get X amount of money towards rent but obviously with shared ownership you have rent and the mortgage, so would UC just pay the rent portion?

Only the rent

Only the rent but you're not treated as under occupying if you have spare rooms.
