What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Devolved governments in England, Scotland, and Wales are reportedly creating specific versions of Your First Home (YFH) schemes. For England, the scheme is an updated help-to-buy initiative offering prospective first-time buyers a government-backed equity loan worth 20% of the purchase price. Buyers would need to secure a minimum 2.5% deposit, and the equity loan is initially interest-free.
