The Help to Buy Wales scheme is available for first-time buyers and home movers wishing to purchase a new-build home in Wales up to the value of £300,000.

The mortgages available for Help to Buy Wales are the same as those available to the UK scheme.

The fixed rate mortgage is 2.79% until 14th September 2018 and then changes to the standard variable rate, currently 4.99%, for the remainder of the term. It is available for loans up to 75% LTV and has a £899 arrangement fee and £99 application fee.

The discounted variable rate mortgage has a rate of 2.44% for the first two years, and is also available for loans up to 75% LTV with a £899 arrangement fee and £99 application fee.

James Bawa, chief executive of Teachers Building Society, said:

“We’re committed to supporting affordable home ownership schemes and branching out to cover the Wales Help to Buy scheme allows us to help more teachers achieve their dream of getting onto the property ladder with a smaller deposit.”
