The PVL is the cap on the value of a property that can be purchased through Co-Ownership. The Department for Communities (DfC) is responsible for reviewing the PVL whenever required.
Co-Ownership is the Department’s sole delivery partner for intermediate housing for sale, a type of affordable housing. It provides two products, namely, Co-Own and Co-Own for Over 55s. The primary market for Co-Own is first-time buyers who cannot access home ownership without intervention, while the Co-Own for Over 55s product is targeted at those aged 55 and over who need help to move to a home more suitable to their needs as they age.
