More than 17,000 homes have been bought under the
Government's Help to Buy scheme, according to the latest official figures. The
vast majority (80%) have been bought by first-time buyers, while 77% have been
purchased outside of London and the South East. The figures were released by
Downing Street, just days after George Osborne announced the scheme was to be
extended until 2020, with a £6billion boost in the budget, to help an estimated
120,000 more households. Read more on the GovUK website.
