Frequently Asked Questions
How much deposit do I need to buy a house?
Typically, you need to try to save at least 5% to 20% of the purchase price.
For example, if you want to buy a home costing £150,000, you’ll need to save at least £7,500 (5%).
Saving more than 5% will give you access to a broader range of cheaper mortgages available on the market.
Budget for the other costs of buying a home
In addition to your monthly mortgage payments, there are additional costs when purchasing a home.
These include:
- Survey costs
- Solicitor’s fee
- Removal costs
- Buildings insurance
- Initial furnishing and decorating costs
- Mortgage arrangement and valuation fees; and
- Stamp Duty – First-time-buyers will pay no Stamp Duty on the first £300,000 for properties worth up to £500,000.
Make sure you can afford your monthly repayments
As a first-time buyer, the most essential thing to bear in mind is whether you can really afford to take this step.
It’s a good idea to work out a budget before you start looking at properties.
As part of the mortgage application process, you’ll need to show the lender evidence of any outgoings you have and prove your income.
What is an agreement in principle?
An agreement in principle is a written estimate from a mortgage lender, giving you an indication of how much money you can borrow. You can show this to estate agents and vendors to prove you’re a serious buyer and can, in theory, get a mortgage.
If you’re getting a mortgage jointly with someone else, the agreement in principle will state how much it will lend on the joint application.

A lifetime mortgage is secured against your home and is a complex product. To understand the features and risks, ask for a personalised illustration. Your home or property may be repossessed if you do not keep up the repayments on your mortgage. You may have to pay an early repayment charge to your existing lender if you remortgage. The value of your investment can go down as well as up and you may not get back the full amount invested. Accessing pension benefits early may impact on levels of retirement income and your entitlement to certain means-tested benefits. Accessing pension benefits is not suitable for everyone. You should seek advice to understand your options at retirement.
