“Young people should not feel excluded from the possibility of owning their own home, and now it will be easier than ever to climb the home ownership ladder.”
The program, which will undergo regular affordability checks, will be available to Lenders from April.
It is based on the Mortgage Guarantee Assisted Buying System introduced by David Cameron and George Osborne in 2013, which lasted until June 2017.

“Owning a home is a dream for millions of people across the UK and we want to help as many people as possible. Saving for a large deposit is often difficult, and the epidemic has reduced the number of low-deposit mortgages available,” said Mr. Sunak.
