The HOLD Scheme

HOLD stands for Home Ownership for People with Long-term Disabilities. It is a government scheme designed to help people with a long-term disability buy any home for sale on a Shared Ownership basis (part-rent/part-buy).

You could buy a home through the HOLD scheme if you have a long-term disability and meet the following criteria:

  • People who live in the property earn a total of £80,000 a year or less if the property is outside London; or £90,000 a year or less if it is in London
  • You are a first-time buyer; you used to own a home but can’t afford to buy one now; or are an existing shared owner looking to move
