Help to buy schemes can help you to buy newly built homes. Provided that buyers can put down a deposit of 5%, the government will then lend up to 20% of the purchase price of the property. This means that the buyer only needs to get a mortgage for the remaining 75%. Then the mortgage guarantee scheme can be used to buy either a new build or a pre-owned property. In this scheme, lenders essentially insure a part of the mortgage with the government. This means that they are guaranteed to get that part of their money back even if the borrower becomes unable to make repayments.
