I have a shared ownership lease. Can I increase my share of the equity in the property leased to me?

The overwhelming majority of shared ownership leases provide that the leaseholder can purchase additional shares in a maximum of three stages until they own 100% of the property. The term used to describe the leaseholder’s right to purchase additional shares is called staircasing.
