First home fund

The First Home Fund is run by the Scottish Government and aims to help first-time homebuyers purchase a property.

New £150 million Scottish Government First Time Buyer Scheme*

  • Open to first-time buyers, or joint applicants who are buying with a first-time buyer
  • A government equity loan of up to £25,000 or 49% of the property value, whichever is lower.
  • No means-testing.
  • No property price limits.
  • Available for new build homes.
  • No monthly repayments: the loan can simply be cleared off at any time, or on sale of the property.
  • Can be combined with a Help to Buy or Lifetime ISAs

Terms and Conditions

Buyers will be required to take out a mortgage, and there will be a minimum mortgage requirement of 25% of the property value, as is the case for Help to Buy.2. Buyers will be required to fund up to 5% of the property price themselves, though this is subject to lender criteria and maybe less. 3. A £550.00 administration fee is payable to the Scheme Administrators but this would be refunded if the application is unsuccessful.
