Home Buy Direct

What is HomeBuy Direct?

HomeBuy Direct is a new shared equity scheme designed to help up to 18,000 First-Time Buyers into affordable home ownership. The scheme will also help participating house builders by enabling more First-Time Buyers to purchase their newly built properties. The scheme has been allocated £400m of Communities and Local Government funding.

The scheme will be offered on specific new build properties brought forward by developers. Buyers will be offered an equity loan of up to 30 per cent of the purchase price, co-funded by Government and the developer.

A full printable guide can be downloaded here.

Why have you introduced it?

We recognise the difficulties being faced by the house building industry and First-Time Buyers in the current housing market, where the global supply of credit has led to the most severe market conditions since the early 1990s.

Evidence collected by the Regional Development Agencies (eg the recent survey of house builders undertaken by the South East England Development Agency - SEEDA), English Partnerships, The Home Builders Federation and others has demonstrated the impact on house builders - who have experienced a reduction in new reservations - and on First Time Buyers, who have struggled to raise the deposits they need in the tough mortgage market conditions.

HomeBuy Direct will respond to the current market conditions by:

• making more affordable homes available to First-Time Buyers who are currently priced out of the market, due to the higher cost of obtaining a mortgage or the need to provide a larger deposit
• providing a targeted boost to the housing market by stimulating more transactions, and
• helping to maintain the capacity of the house building industry to respond when market conditions improve. This will, in turn, help us to achieve our long-term housing supply targets.

How will it work?

Once launched, HomeBuy Direct will operate as follows:

• As with the other HomeBuy products, the 15 regional HomeBuy Agents will be the first point of contact for First-Time Buyers who are interested in applying for the scheme. For Gloucester you should contact Home2Own on 0800 975 1915 or visit therw website at www.home2own.org.uk
• General eligibility for HomeBuy Direct will be the same as for the other HomeBuy products (ie households earning £60,000 or less who could not afford to buy a suitable property on the open market without assistance in the area where they live or work).
• Applicants will also be subject to an affordability check, designed to assess the size of equity share that they are able to afford and sustain.
• If applicants qualify for the scheme, they will be invited to choose one of the HomeBuy Direct properties brought forward by the developers.
• The purchaser will receive an equity loan of up to 30 per cent of the purchase price of the chosen property. The equity loan will be co-funded on equal terms by Government and by the developer supplying the property. The purchaser must contribute the remaining equity (a minimum of 70 per cent), through their mortgage (which could be obtained from any lender regulated by the Financial Services Authority) and any deposit.
• There will be no fee charge for the equity loan for the first five years but a fee will be charged from year six onwards.
• Purchasers can redeem the equity loan in installments, purchasing up to 100 per cent equity after their initial purchase by buying additional equity at the market rate.
• Buyers will be able to sell their HomeBuy Direct home on the open market. When they do so, they will repay the equity loan by way of a share of the sale proceeds. This repayment will be shared equally between Government and the developer.
• If the value of the property has increased by the point of sale, the buyer, the developer and Government will all share in this increase. If the value of the property has gone down, Government and the developer will only share the sale proceeds that are left over once the mortgage has been repaid.

Who will it help?

HomeBuy Direct will help:

• First-Time Buyers
  The scheme is targeted at First-Time Buyers who cannot afford to buy a suitable property on the open market without assistance in the area where they live or work. This may be due to the higher cost of borrowing at present, or other factors.
• House builders
  Current market conditions and lack of mortgage liquidity are impacting heavily on the house building industry. There is a long-term public interest in maintaining the capacity of the industry to respond with increased supply when the housing market recovers. The scheme will help participating house builders by enabling First-Time Buyers to purchase their properties (by offering purchasers a better deal than they would otherwise have received).
• The housing market
  First-Time Buyers are one of the key drivers of the housing market. By assisting First-Time Buyers to purchase, HomeBuy Direct will provide a targeted boost to the market. This will encourage developers to build more to meet the extra demand.

Who will be eligible?

General eligibility for the scheme is the same as for our other HomeBuy schemes (ie households earning £60,000 or less who could not afford to buy a suitable property on the open market without assistance).

Although the scheme is targeted at First-Time Buyers, HomeBuy Direct could also help people who have previously owned properties but are now unable to buy without assistance, for example in the case of relationship breakdowns or families who are over-crowded in their existing homes.

When will the scheme be up and running?

The scheme is now in the process of being rolled out. 3,000 HomeBuy Direct properties are available to purchasers now, and further properties will become available very soon.

On the day Persimmon’s expert sales advisers, a mortgage advisor and a representative from HomeBuy Direct will be on hand to assist interested parties with their enquiries.

FIRST TIME BUYERS RECEIVE SUPPORT FROM PERSIMMON HOMES

If you’re thinking about buying your first home, given the current market conditions, you’ve probably resided to the fact that you’ve only got two options – a small apartment or a small house. Well, with support from Persimmon Homes South Midlands, you could broaden your horizons as the competitively priced three bedroom homes at its The Maples development in Gloucester have been priced with first time buyers in mind. 

Alison Reading, sales director for Persimmon Homes South Midlands comments: “I strongly believe that the recent economic downturn shouldn’t continue to hinder those looking to buy their all important first property. Nor should it limit the range and styles of homes they can choose from, which is why at The Maples offering a number of two and even three bedroom homes at prices they can afford, and this is proven by the fact that 95 per cent of the development has now sold and we’re selling homes ahead of schedule here.” 

Currently available at the development are a range of two and three bedroom homes for those looking to move onto or up the property ladder. Prices start from £129,995 for a two bedroom design and through the company’s commitment to the Government led 70 per cent HomeBuy Direct shared equity scheme, purchasers could pay as little as £90,997, meaning purchasing at the Gloucester development can be both stress free and cost effective. 

Alison adds: “I’d urge interested househunters to come and see The Maples sooner rather than later as there are just a handful of homes remaining at our popular development before it comes to a close.” 

With properties sold under the HomeBuy Direct scheme, househunters will be relieved to note that they will not have to find a deposit as they are just required to raise mortgage funding of at least 70 per cent of the purchase price. The remaining 30 per cent will be made up by an equity loan co-funded by the Government and Persimmon Homes, which is interest free for five years. 

“When it comes to understanding the needs and current restraints facing first time buyers, the team at Persimmon are fully aware of the complications involved with buying a first home. For those thinking about purchasing their first property, I’d encourage them to come and speak to us as we’re. 

on hand to talk interested parties through the process and the procedures involved, making it both an attractive and affordable option,” concludes Alison. 

The Maples, situated off Coney Hill Road, is located in close proximity to good local amenities and there are excellent shopping and leisure facilities found at the cathedral city of Gloucester.
