Episode Synopsis "The Future of Shared Ownership: The Code, The Reform Act and transparency in pricing and costs"

The Shared Ownership scheme is constantly changing and improving, with new regulations bringing in positive updates to the scheme. Much has changed since its introduction in 1980. People want more consumer protection, transparency in pricing and fees, and better lease terms. Joined by Bernie Conroy, a specialised consultant for the Shared Ownership Council, we deep-dive into the upcoming changes for leases under the new Reform Act 2025, the introduction of The Code for more consumer protection and increased transparency in costs and fees, and OPSO, the Older Person Shared Ownership specialised scheme.Other than cost breakdown, in this seventh episode, we'll also talk about insurance, lease extensions, and selling your home.--SO In The Know is BACK!
