How is the Your Home gradual homeownership scheme structured to ensure Sharia compliance?

The Your Home gradual homeownership scheme is a very straightforward and clean method of purchasing a property that essentially is based on yourself and Heylo having shared ownership of a joint asset (a property). You only pay for usage of the property that doesn't belong to you through rent, and if you choose to buy more of the property, the rent will decrease in line with your ownership until eventually you own 100% and no rent is due.

 

What makes this so simple from a Sharia perspective is that no lending is involved, you aren't borrowing money which you have to pay back. This scheme allows you to grow your home ownership at your rate.

 

This type of structure classically was called a diminishing musharakah, which simply means a diminishing partnership.

How is Your Home different to an Islamic mortgage?

An Islamic mortgage (in the UK currently), whilst using similar language, is not too different to a conventional mortgage in its money flows and repayment structure. An Islamic Mortgage offers part ownership and part rental. However, with this arrangement, you’re obligated to purchase more of the house.  This obligation makes the structure of the whole process almost identical to a conventional mortgage.

Where does Heylo get its funding from?

Launched in 2014, Heylo’s long-dated horizon funding model has created one of the largest shared ownership programmes in the UK. With over 8,000 shared ownership homes, offering a number of different routes to make home ownership possible. Heylo's mission is to provide the highest standards of service for our continually growing pool of new house buyers.

What is an Ijara mortgage?

An Ijara mortgage – when compared to an Islamic mortgage – more closely resembles a legitimately halal mortgage. An Ijara mortgage is a scenario in which the property you buy - with the aid of a shared ownership scheme – isn't immediately in your name. Rather, the deed only transfers to you once you’ve paid all the rent owed to the lender.

How does an Ijara mortgage differ from a standard Islamic mortgage?

With an Islamic mortgage, you must agree to own a certain amount of the house from the offset. An Ijara mortgage allows for more flexibility in this area, as you can negotiate how much of the house you initially purchase. The only condition is that the home isn’t owned by you until you’ve fully paid back whatever rent you owe.
