Affordable housing schemes in the City of London

The Homes for Londoners property portal lists affordable homes across the capital through schemes such as Shared Ownership, London Living Rent, Discount Market Sale, and Older Persons Shared Ownership.

  • London Living Rent: Homes available to rent at a lower cost, helping tenants save for a deposit to buy in the future.
  • Shared Ownership: Purchase a share of a home, usually between 10 per cent and 75 per cent, and pay rent on the rest.
  • Discount Market Sale: Buy 100 per cent of a home at a 20 per cent discount, making homeownership more affordable for local buyers.
