Although Help to Buy will be in effect until 2023, there
will be new restrictions applied in 2021 that could exclude 38% of the
homebuyers who used it this year. The Help to Buy end date is in 2023 but
starting in 2021 it will be available only to first-time buyers and for homes
with a market value up to the price cap for new regional properties. These caps

will not be introducing another loan scheme like Help to Buy. Read more on the
CRL website.
