I researched shared ownership a while back and I listed the things that ultimately put me off. No comment, no thanks, nothing. All you're interested in is the 30/40/50 something boy scouts and their plan to build the ultimate bum factory.
Back to the OP, here's the perfect solution: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-26964724 [h=1]Americans construct tiny houses – and new lives[/h] More and more Americans are building tiny houses, drawn to the prospect of financial freedom and a smaller ecological footprint. Gianna Palmer reports on the growing movement from Charlotte, North Carolina. When Sicily Kolbeck first told people she was planning to build her own house, they often assumed she meant a doll house. "I got a lot of, 'That's cute,'" Sicily recalls. In reality, Sicily, 13, aimed to become part of a burgeoning movement. Sicily didn't have any construction expertise when she read about these scaled-down houses online and was inspired to build her own. "I would make forts, but those were made of blankets," she says. Sicily isn't so different from many fellow tiny house builders in this respect. please log in to view this image please log in to view this image please log in to view this image
Maybe even worse if that's possible. It's a shed on wheels basically but I thought i'd run it up the flagpole and see if you saluted it anyway.
You asked the question, I gave you a sensible answer. I know for a FACT that you won't be buying a shared ownership property now or ever having read my comment.
