Buying further shares in your home

You are entitled to increase the equity share in your home by purchasing additional shares. This process is called staircasing;

The staircasing process

•     Check your lease for any restrictive clauses

•     Inform INplace that you wish to purchase further shares in your property

•     Independent surveyor values your property – this valuation must not be more than three months

      old on completion of purchase

•     Upon receipt of valuation INplace will calculate the purchase price of the shares you wish to buy

      (conditions apply, please refer to leaflet)

•     You agree purchase price and confirm you wish to proceed with staircasing

•     You instruct a solicitor

•     Completion.  If you now own 100% of the property you will no longer pay rent to us.
