The chancellor has announced in the Budget a new mortgage scheme which will enable homebuyers with a 5% deposit to get accepted for a mortgage, with part of the loan being backed by the Government. This scheme is set to operate from April until December 2022.
The uncertainty of the pandemic meant a lot of lenders didn’t want to offer their riskier 95% mortgages so they started to rapidly disappear. As a result, this scheme is to encourage lenders to re-enter the 95% market. The great news is that it isn’t only for first-time buyers, it includes previous homeowners and homemovers purchasing a main home.
What criteria has to be met to be eligible for this scheme?
The pandemic caused a lot of financial uncertainty for a lot of people but with the news of the government helping buyers with this new scheme and the extension of the stamp duty, buyers are able to get back on the housing ladder.
