Mortgage Guarantee scheme

The mortgage guarantee scheme allows first-time buyers to buy a home with as little as a 5% deposit, with them borrowing the remaining 95% of the mortgage. There is a government guarantee on the scheme, meaning the government will reimburse the mortgage lender if the buyer defaults on payments.

Shared Ownership scheme

Shared Ownership allows low-income individuals to own a home by allowing them to buy a portion of the property and rent the remaining percentage. The minimum starting stake is 10%, and you can increase this amount whenever you feel ready. An additional bonus is the fact that you only have to pay the deposit required for the portion you buy.

The Lifetime ISA

A Lifetime ISA helps first-time buyers save up for a deposit by giving topping up their savings account annually. You can save up to £4,000 per annum, and the government adds an additional 25% on top of the amount you save, reducing the amount of time it takes to save up for your first home.

Help to Build Equity Loan scheme

The Help to Build Equity Loan scheme is useful for first-time buyers who are looking to build their own home. This scheme offers a five-year, interest-free loan to supplement a buyer's 5% deposit. The equity loan amount ranges from 5% to 20% of the total estimated cost.

The Agency was proactive Entrepreneur Breed 03/02/2025

I needed a house quickly for me and my two children as my old landlord was selling the house at such short notice. Alice from the horbury brand was so understanding and helpful trying to make things as quickly as possible. Always phoning me to give me updates which in past cases I normally have to chase the agent! She has been really quick with replies and honestly being so helpful. I feel super lucky she was dealing with my tenancy for me. The most helpful person and has contacted me since to make sure everything is ok. She definitely deserves recognition for being fantastic at her job! X Rebecca 03/02/2025

Our experience with Richard Kendal (or Karen Marijewko) has been absolutely brilliant. Karen has been a great help with advising us on what needs doing, ensuring smooth communications between ourselves and others and even advocating for ourselves when things weren’t going smoothly. We are incredibly grateful for all help and guidance during this time and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others. Sadie 03/02/2025

A lovely company to work with during a very stressful time. Very professional, knowledgeable and honest. Amanda has been amazing and really helpful all the way through. I would highly recommend! Ellyn 03/02/2025

Elizabeth Cooke dealt with the case very well, despite delays in the sale due to various reasons related to solicitors' searches and legal matters, she provided a great service. SA 03/02/2025

Thanks to a great team at Richard Kendall, especially Amber who was our dedicated agent for the sale who provided feedback updates and post sales contact. Couldn't have wished for a better sales experience and will definitely use again or recommend. Andrew 03/02/2025

The Richard Kendall team were fantastic when selling my property. Andy came to the house to take photographs and was professional, friendly and took brilliant photos.
