£5,000 Deposits for First Time Buyers

February 19, 2025

Accord Mortgages have released a product that will allow first time buyers to purchase a property with as little as £5000 deposit.

This is very different offering to most lenders, who would insist that the deposit is at least 5% of the property's value (so still £15,000 for a £300,000 house)... Accord Mortgages (part of the Yorkshire Building Society) are simply saying, irrelevant to the property value, that as long as you are a first time buyer and have at least £5,000, they will help.


Combine this with reducing interest rates, this year will be a really good time for those looking to buy their first home.

If you're a first time buyer looking to get on the property ladder this year, why not get in touch with a member of our team to start asking those initial questions? We'd be happy to help.
