The Help to Build scheme is designed to help people build or commission a house that meets their specific needs. While full details haven't yet been published, the National Custom and Self Build Association has previously suggested how it could work. "The scheme will provide an equity loan on the completed home, similar to the Help to Buy scheme." Andrew Baddeley-Chappell, CEO, National Custom and Self Build Association said: "The Help to Build scheme is an important step towards greater customer choice for those with ambition, sound plans and smaller deposits. Applications will be open from late summer for the Help to Build scheme, and is expected to remain active for the next four years.
