TWO new shared-ownership home schemes have been unveiled by the Tees Valley Housing Group.

The Imperial Court project in York features 12 two-bedroom apartments, while the group has also handed over the first eight houses of a new 28-home scheme at Villa Fields, in Scarborough.

The schemes will allow people to take a step on to the property ladder by buying a half-share in their homes.

A further 12 homes at Villa Fields are due to be approved within the next three months.
