Ben and Lauren
“I would recommend Help to Buy to all, but particularly to younger families who want to make plans for the future.”
Ben and his wife Lauren recently used Help to Buy to purchase their ‘forever’ home that will allow them to spend quality time with their daughter, Annabelle.
Ben said: “The process for Help to Buy was relatively easy, particularly as our solicitor dealt with all things relating to Help to Buy. Our financial adviser met with us initially and gave us an idea of how it works and what to expect as well as giving us a pack explaining it all clearly. It took a while to read through but was all pretty self-explanatory with no real areas for confusion.
“This scheme has been great for us as a family because we wanted to move to our ‘forever home’ but didn’t have enough of a deposit to do so right now. With the Help to Buy contribution it has provided the stepping stone for us to get our long-term plan for life started sooner than we had anticipated. Without it we would have had to move house at least another 2 times due to lack of space but now we are set for a happy future in a home we love.
