MyChoiceHomeBuy
What is MyChoiceHomeBuy?
MyChoiceHomeBuy is a government funded low cost home ownership programme. Its aim is to help first time buyers who cannot afford to buy a suitable home in the area where they live or work. MyChoiceHomeBuy is a flexible equity loan scheme designed to help households earning between £20-60,000 p.a. to buy their own home on the open market. You will own the home and our loan will be secured by a second charge against the property.
