Is shared ownership a bit of a scam? I will be speaking to proper mortgage advisors in due course but it doesn't hurt to hear your wonderful wisdom...
I have about 30% deposit, could probably go up to about 35% but my income on paper sucks... I do earn a respectable average London income, but... this appears to be not good enough, my own bank won't even bat an eyelid on me with my income... not that I would want to go with them for my possible mortgage anyway...
