Shared Ownership remains “misunderstood and underused”
among young people, according to new research. According to the research the
18-24 age group is the least aware of Shared Ownership, despite being most likely
to benefit from the scheme. YouGov research commissioned by Leeds Building
Society found that three-quarters of people in the UK have heard of Shared
Ownership, however among 18-24-year-olds awareness is as low as 40%. Almost 40
years after the launch of Shared Ownership, awareness was found to have
increased with age, with 83% of 55s and over, 79% of 45-54s, 78% of 35-44s and
70% of 25-34s aware of the scheme. Read more on 24housing.
