Waverley Borough Council

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.

These homes will be sold direct by the developer and units may start to be available during 2023.

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.

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.
