How Does the Help-to-Buy Scheme Work?
Making a purchase using a Help-to-Buy mortgage is split into three components:
- Deposit – You will be required to contribute a deposit of 5% of the property price or more. This is significantly less than the standard deposit contribution.
- Shared equity loan – The government will provide a shared equity loan of up to 20% of the property purchase price (40% in London). You must pay back the loan after 25 years or when you sell your home – whichever comes first. The amount you pay back depends on how much your home is worth (the market value).
- Mortgage – The remaining 75% (55% in London) of the purchase price will be covered by a residential mortgage.
For example, if you fell in love with a dream property that cost £200,000, you would need to save for a £10,000 deposit, plus additional solicitors fees and stamp duty. A shared equity loan from the government would provide £40,000 and a mortgage would cover the remaining £150,000.
