Help To Buy

How it works:

With a 5% deposit you can use the Help to Buy scheme to purchase your dream home. The Government will lend you up to 20% of the value of the chosen property through an equity loan which can be either repaid at any time, or on the sale of your home in the future.

​

This then means you only need to find a 75% mortgage with your self funded 5% deposit.

​

There is a maximum home value cap of £600,000.
