Summary
First Homes - a new scheme designed to help local first-time buyers and key workers onto the property ladder, by offering homes at a discount of 30% compared to the market price.
Description
First Homes
The right choice for A first-time buyer
The First Homes scheme is a government-backed initiative, only available in England, that has
been created to help local first-time buyers and key workers get onto the property ladder.
If you purchase a brand-new home through the First Homes scheme you will receive a discount,
meaning you may be able to buy a new home for 30% less than the market value. The discount
applies to the home forever and therefore means that the next generations of first-time buyers will
continue to benefit every time the property is sold.
New build First Homes cannot cost more than £250,000 (in London this figure rises to £420,000)
after the discount has been applied, although the local council can lower this maximum price.
Are You Eligible?
In order to qualify for the First Homes
scheme, you must fulfil the following
criteria:
• Be a first-time buyer.
• Have an annual household income
of less than £80,000 before tax.
• Be able to get a mortgage for at
least 50% of the discounted price
of the property.
• Live in this First Home as your
only or main residence.
Note: Where more than one
person is buying the First
Home then all buyers must
meet the above requirements.
In addition, there are also
certain local criteria that will
be applied by the local council
in order to be eligible. Some
councils may prioritise giving
First Homes discounts to
members of the armed forces,
key workers, people who
already live in the area and
those on lower incomes.
