Help To Buy Scheme | Burrington Estates

Help to Buy has now changed

The Government has announced a new Help to Buy scheme to run from April 2021. It is restricted to first-time buyers and includes regional property price caps to ensure the scheme reaches people who need it most. There are no changes to the current Help to Buy equity loan scheme which runs to March 2021.

The new scheme will run from April 2021 to March 2023. As with the current scheme, under the new scheme, the Government will lend buyers up to 20% of the cost of a newly built home, and up to 40% in London.
