The minimum deposit required for a first time buyer is a 5% Deposit can come from your own savings or even a gifted deposit from a friend or family member. In some cases, you can have a combination of both gift and savings.
In somes cases a deposit isn’t needed, for examples if you’ve thought about buying the property you’re currently in from your landlord or housing association, it’s worth checking your eligibility for the Right to Buy Scheme. Speaking to your local authority should allow clarification on this.
You can find more information about deposits and these schemes by navigating to the guides section of our website or by visiting the government Own Your Home website.

Gifted deposits aren’t the only option for first time buyers in Halifax looking to enter the property market. Several government schemes are available, offering assistance with deposits and increasing your chances of homeownership.
Additionally, saving for a larger deposit can often result in more favorable mortgage rates and terms. Another viable option is the shared ownership scheme, allowing you to purchase a share of a property and pay rent on the remaining portion.

Supporting documents such as payslips and bank statements from the last three months may be requested. Your deposit is important, affecting available mortgage deals.
While most lenders require a minimum 5% deposit, some have higher thresholds. A higher deposit often results in borrowing less and potentially secures better rates.
