London Home Show Sponsors: Meet L&Q
Find out more about Shared Ownership resale homes with L&Q
L&Q will be returning to the London Home Show this spring, offering visitors the chance to explore a range of affordable homeownership options and learn more about L&Q’s homes currently available across the country.
Taking place in Central London, the event brings together housing providers, mortgage advisors and industry experts, giving prospective buyers the opportunity to ask questions and find out more about the different routes onto the property ladder – including Shared Ownership resale homes.
What is a Shared Ownership resale home?
Shared Ownership resale homes are pre-owned Shared Ownership properties that the current owner is looking to sell. Buyers purchase the share that the current resident owns – or potentially a larger share if financially feasible (up to a maximum of 75%). As with brand new Shared Ownership homes, buyers then pay rent on the remaining share.
Once they have purchased their home, buyers also have the option to increase their ownership over time through a process known as staircasing, gradually buying more shares in the property until they eventually own their home outright.
L&Q offers a wide range of resale homes across the country, from apartments through to family houses, giving buyers plenty of choice when it comes to location and property type.
Why consider a Shared Ownership resale home?
Shared Ownership resale homes can be a great option for buyers who are looking for a home in an established development or neighbourhood.
As these homes are already built and lived in, they are often located in areas where brand new L&Q homes may no longer be available. This can open up opportunities in locations where new developments have already sold out. Resale homes can also offer a wider variety of property types, from apartments to houses, across a range of different communities. Homes are available across the country too – from one bedroom apartments in the capital to three bedroom family homes in Greater Manchester.
Another benefit of buying a resale home is that viewings take place with the current owner. This means buyers can ask questions about the property directly and gain useful insights into the local area – from the best coffee shops nearby to favourite parks for a weekend stroll or the local spots that residents love most.
Am I eligible for a resale home?
To buy a home through Shared Ownership – whether a new-build or a resale – buyers must meet a few key eligibility requirements.
Your combined household income must be under £80,000 per year, or £90,000 if you live in London. You must also be over 18 and not already own a home or part of a property. To find out more about the eligibility criteria, head here.
Visitors to the London Home Show 2026 will be able to speak directly with the L&Q team to learn more about Shared Ownership resale homes and the properties currently available.
The team will be on hand throughout the event to answer questions and help prospective buyers explore whether Shared Ownership could work for them.
