Until the end of March*, Help to Buy Wales equity loans can be used to purchase a new build home priced up to £300,000, providing it will be built by December 23, 2021. Under the scheme buyers receive an equity loan for 20% of the purchase price and should only need a 5% deposit and a 75% mortgage from their lender of choice, giving buyers a vital helping hand onto the property ladder. Crucially, the Government-backed loan is interest free for the first five years. On April 1 the price cap for new homes reserved with Help to Buy Wales will lower to £250,000.
