One of these would involve developers contributing 1.5% of the property value to enable buyers to have an interest-free loan for the first five years of homeownership.  The proposals, which are all designed to be cost-free to the government, aim to increase housing supply, address need and improve quality.  The report also called for the income threshold for shared ownership to be increased from £80,000 to £120,000 outside London, and from £90,000 to £135,000 in the capital.
