Housing schemes in London
Finding a home in London can be challenging, but a range of affordable housing schemes are available to help make it easier. The Homes for Londoners portal brings together affordable housing schemes that support people at different stages of life – from first time buyers to downsizers and renters saving for a deposit.
These schemes are designed to make homeownership more accessible, giving Londoners options to find a place that suits their budget, lifestyle, and future plans. Whether you’re looking for a new-build flat, a family home, or a later-living option, you can start your search here.
The Homes for Londoners property portal provides details of the main affordable housing schemes backed by the Mayor of London. Each one offers a different route to finding a home, depending on your circumstances – with options to part-buy, purchase at a discounted price, or rent below market rates.
From Shared Ownership and Older Persons Shared Ownership to London Living Rent and Discount Market Sale, these initiatives are designed to create more pathways into secure, high-quality housing. You’ll find new developments, regenerated neighbourhoods, and growing communities across the city, with homes available to view and register your interest in today.
