Ben and Kirby Dawkins are settling into their new home – as the first people in the south west of England to benefit from the recently launched Help to Buy scheme with David Wilson Homes.
“Our biggest stumbling block in trying to buy a house was finding enough of a deposit,” said Ben. “With Help to Buy we were able to use the savings we already had. It was great news for us as it meant we could get better mortgage interest rate and have lower payments without having to save for another year.”
Creating an account can make finding the right home much easier.

View our detailed guide for more information on the process
You’ll need a solicitor that specialises in conveyance to look after all the paperwork. We can put you in touch with one if needs be.
There are plenty of options to consider when it comes to a mortgage. Once you’ve done your research (or spoken to a mortgage adviser – again, we can put you in touch if you like), you should seek an agreement in principle.
Your mortgage lender will want confirmation the home is worth what you’re paying for it. They’ll organise the valuation for you – this will involve a fee.
You solicitor will look after this for you. It’s all about formally transferring ownership from us to you, and checking there are no legal obstacles in the way.
Once the legal work is complete, your solicitor will exchange contracts with us. This is when you pay your deposit and commit to the deal taking place.
On the date of completion, you become the legal owner of your new home. Collect the keys and make yourself comfy!
