03/03/2021 Government Confirms Plans To Guarantee 95% Mortgages

The UK government has confirmed that it will guarantee the risk of 95 per cent mortgages through a guarantee scheme for lenders.

The scheme, announced in the Budget on 03/03/2021, will give buyers – both first-time and existing  the option to put down a 5 per cent deposit on a home, up to a value of £600,000,  helping address the problem of higher-LTV mortgages disappearing from the market.

Described as a “New policy to stand behind home buyers,’ chancellor Rishi Sunak stated that some of the country’s biggest lenders, “Including Lloyds, NatWest, Santander, Barclays, and HSBC” will be offering the new mortgages from next month.

“More, including Virgin Money, will follow shortly,” he said, adding “As the prime minster has said, we want to turn ‘generation rent’ into ‘generation buy’.
