Helping with your first-time-buyer deposit

It can be a huge challenge to pull together a deposit for your first home but, if your parents, family or friends are in a position to help you out with a gift, we’ll help you show your appreciation.

 

How does Deposit Assist work?

If your friends or relatives gift a minimum of 5% of your house or apartment deposit for a new Countryside home, we’ll give them a £2,000 gift in return.

The process is simple: as soon as you complete on your new home, we’ll transfer the money to them. It doesn’t stop there, though; we’ll also give you £5,000 that you can put towards moving costs or furnishings for your new home.

 

Benefits of buying new

Making use of a home deposit gift from your parents with our Deposit Assist scheme isn't the only reason to buy a brand-new Countryside home. Purchasing one of our new builds could save you money in the long term thanks to their energy-efficient design.

With the cost of utility bills continuing to creep up, owning a new build home could help you save up to £1,685^ a year on your energy bills in comparison to an older second-hand property.
