What is Help to Buy?
The Government’s Help to Buy Equity Loan initiative in Shepherd's Bush allows eligible people to buy properties with as little as a 5% deposit. The maximum purchase price of any property you buy is £600,000.
The Government provides you with a loan of up to 20% of the property's purchase price and you have to secure a mortgage for the remaining 75%.
For properties in the London area, the London Help to Buy scheme operates. It is broadly the same as the Help to Buy Equity Loan, except the Government provides a loan of up to 40% of the purchase price, to reflect the higher property prices in London, so a mortgage must be secured for the remaining 55% of the purchase price.
