Selling your home

You have the flexibility and choice to sell your Sparrow shared ownership home at any time. You will be able to find out how to go about this in your key information document or the lease for your home.

To start the process, please let us know if you’re planning to sell your home through My Sage Home. If you own 100% of your home, you will be able to sell it on the open market. But, again, please let us know.

If you do not own 100% of your home, we may decide we want the chance to find a buyer for your home in what is known as a “nomination period”. The value of your home would be decided by a surveyor registered by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS).

Let us know if you’re planning on selling your home through My Sage Home.
