A £5 million affordable homes scheme will be marketed to
NHS staff, carers and teachers who struggle to get on the housing ladder in
York. Councillors have approved money to launch a new shared ownership homes
programme, which will see people getting council help to buy 65 homes in York.
The homes - probably made up of 40 new-build homes, and 25 “second hand” homes
bought on the open market - will be targeted at valuable key workers in areas
like the NHS, children’s workers and social care, and schools - who currently
struggle with York’s high housing costs. The first people could be buying their
new homes by the end of the year. Read more on the York Press.
