Discover how it works!

What is Help to Buy?

  • With Help to Buy, you could buy a brand-new home sooner than you think.

    • You only need a 5% deposit
    • The Government loans you up to 20% of the value of the property (a big boost to your deposit)
    • The loan is interest-free for five years, making your dream home more affordable.
    • You only need to secure a 75% mortgage

    There are a range of competitive mortgage rates available with this scheme, so it’s worth comparing lenders to find the best deal. We can introduce you to a (potentially fee-free) New Home Mortgage Adviser who’ll search the market to find you a great deal.
