Shared Equity Scheme

First Time Buyers can get on the property ladder with Easystart, Taylor Wimpey’s Shared Equity Scheme

First Time Buyers who are struggling to save for a large enough deposit to get a first time buyer mortgage. Taylor Wimpey’s Shared Equity scheme Easystart lets you own 100% of your new home, but you only pay 85% of the price now*.

When you buy a new home with Shared Equity, it’s so much easier to get a first time buyer mortgage. Details vary between plots, but you could need as little as 5% deposit and a mortgage for just 80% of the purchase price of your new home. We could then lend you the remaining 15% - rent and interest free for the first 10 years. And what’s more, you’ll own 100% of your new home, right from the start.

Here’s how it works:

• Own 100% of your new home for 85% of the price now. Offer available on selected new homes.
• You pay no interest or rent on the other outstanding amount for 10 years!
• You have up to 10 years to repay the outstanding amount at market value.
• Your home is 100% yours from day one.
