Commenting on the Budget 2018, Jackie Bennett, Director of Mortgages at UK Finance, said:
The extension of Help to Buy is good news for first-time buyers with low deposits, who will continue to receive vital support when buying a new-build home until 2023.
Last year the number of first-time buyers reached its highest level in a decade, boosted by vital schemes like Help to Buy.
Today's announcement provides further clarity and will bring welcome certainty to the new-build housing and mortgage market. Alongside the stamp duty exemption for first-time buyers on shared ownership properties up to £500,000, this measure will help even more people get a foot on the housing ladder in the years ahead.
