First Homes

First Homes are designed for local first-time buyers who want to stay in the communities where they live or work, but are struggling to get onto the property ladder.

The First Home scheme offers eligible first-time buyers a discounted property.

  • The maximum amount First Homes can be sold for is £250,000.
  • This discount remains with the property so that future eligible buyers can benefit from the scheme if the house is re-sold.
  • These homes will be sold direct by the developer.

The First Homes scheme is available exclusively to local first-time buyers who meet the following three criteria:

  • First-time buyers
  • Individual or couples with a combined income not exceeding £80,000
  • Local connection for the first three months that properties are on sale.

If the homes remain unsold after this, these conditions will be removed meaning any eligible first-time buyers can apply.
