Six-month extension of Help to Buy - Wales welcomed

 Homebuyers looking to purchase a new home in Deeside or Mold have more time to utilise Help to Buy – Wales thanks to an extended deadline. 

Help to Buy – Wales was scheduled to close to new applications in September but, this week, that date was pushed back to March 31, 2027.

The Welsh Government estimates 400 additional households could be supported by the extension.

A selection of properties at our Summers Bridge and Dol Derwen developments are available under the scheme.

At Summers Bridge, in Deeside, one, two and three-bedroom properties are priced from £159,995. At Dol Derwen in Mold, the three-bedroom Bretton home, at £299,995, also qualifies.

We’re encouraging prospective purchasers to explore their options and seek independent financial advice to understand whether Help to Buy – Wales could support their purchase plans.

Graeme Gibb, sales director for Anwyl Homes Cheshire and North Wales, said: “Help to Buy – Wales has helped thousands of people purchase a new home and we’re really pleased that even more buyers will have a chance to use the scheme before it closes next spring.

“For anyone considering a move this year, Help to Buy Wales could be the key to making it more affordable. Buyers should ensure they have all the information they need and speak to financial advisers at an early stage. Applications for Help to Buy Wales need to be approved by March 31,, 2027 and buyers need to legally complete on their new home within nine months of that date.

“We still have several homes available within the scheme’s price cap across our Summers Bridge and Dol Derwen developments, giving would-be homeowners a range of options to consider.

“Our sales teams are available to explain about the homes currently on sale under the scheme and help customers understand the next steps involved in the buying process.”

Under Help to Buy – Wales, eligible buyers can access an equity loan of up to 20% of the purchase price of a new build home. The loan is interest-free for the first five years, enabling purchasers to buy with a minimum of a 5% deposit, with a mortgage covering the remaining balance. The scheme applies to new homes priced up to £300,000.

Summers Bridge forms part of the wider Airfields regeneration of the former RAF Sealand site and will eventually provide 183 new homes. Residents are already benefiting from investment in the surrounding area, including a new Aldi supermarket.

The development offers a range of new homes suitable for first time buyers, growing families and downsizers, with show homes available to view.

Dol Derwen has recently opened with new show homes, and our three and four-bedroom homes are attracting a variety of purchasers who want to be close to the market town of Mold, with its vibrant shops, amenities, schools, and countryside walks close by.
