Shared ownership dilemma

[andyjevs]

I have bought my house with a shared ownership company called orbit. I own 45%...they own the rest. I have a mortgage on my share (�69k) and pay a subsidised rent on their section. However, i was wondering if companies such as orbit (which are a housing association) would buy your share of the property back from you and you remain in there as a tennant and pay a full rent. Has anyone any experience on this> Thanks in advance

The first thing I would suggest is talk to Orbit, you are only asking a question as oppose to asking for them to do it. I believe some associations do this but they are independant from each other so it could vary from branch to branch
