A guide to Help to Buy ISAs
Help to Buy ISAs are a type of Individual Savings Account (ISA) designed to help first-time buyers save up a deposit for their home. The government will add 25% to your savings, up to a maximum of £3,000 on savings of £12,000. The minimum amount you need to save to qualify is £1,600 (which gives you a £400 bonus).
With a new Help to Buy ISA, the government will top up your savings by 25%. So for every £200 you save, the government will contribute £50.
You can start off your ISA with an initial deposit of up to £1,000, which also qualifies for the 25% boost from the government.
Help to Buy ISAs are available to each first-time buyer, not each house, so if you’re buying a property with your partner, for example, you’ll be able to get up to £6,000 towards your deposit.
Your bonus will go straight to the mortgage lender. It doesn’t sit in your account, it earns no interest and you only get it if you buy a home.
AS A MORTGAGE IS SECURED AGAINST YOUR HOME, IT COULD BE REPOSSESSED IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP THE MORTGAGE REPAYMENTS.
For mortgages we can be paid by commission, a fee or a combination of both. Our typical fee is £395. However, we will discuss your payment options with you and confirm the actual amount payable before we begin to provide our services.
