# Your First Home regional price caps announced
11 Nov 2026 [Anwyl Homes](https://blog.anwylhomes.co.uk/blog/author/anwyl-homes)
We welcome the Government's proposed new "Your First Home" scheme, which aims to help more first time buyers in England take their first step onto the property ladder.
The scheme, due to launch in 2027, is designed to help first time buyers purchase a new build home with a deposit of just 2.5%, supported by a Government equity loan of up to 20% of the property's value and a mortgage for the remaining amount.
For many buyers, affordability remains one of the biggest barriers to homeownership. That's why we're encouraged by the progress being made towards the introduction of Your First Home and welcome the confirmation of local property price caps, which will determine which homes are eligible under the scheme.
Your First Home is separate from and should not be confused with the Government's existing First Homes scheme, which offers eligible first-time buyers discounted properties in selected locations across England.
#### Confirmed Your First Home price caps
The Government has confirmed that homes purchased through the Your First Home scheme will be subject to regional property price caps based on local authority median house prices.
The price caps across areas where Anwyl Homes builds are:
Cheshire
\- Cheshire East: £310,000
\- Cheshire West and Chester: £295,000
Lancashire
\- Burnley: £230,000
\- Chorley: £300,000
\- Fylde: £275,000
\- Hyndburn: £240,000
\- Lancaster: £285,000
\- Pendle: £250,000
\- Preston: £280,000
\- Ribble Valley: £280,000
\- Rossendale: £270,000
\- South Ribble: £265,000
\- West Lancashire: £275,000
\- Wyre: £255,000
Merseyside
\- Halton: £305,000
\- Knowsley: £285,000
\- Liverpool: £235,000
\- Sefton: £290,000
\- St Helens: £270,000
\- Wirral: £255,000
Greater Manchester
\- Bolton: £300,000
\- Bury: £340,000
\- Manchester: £355,000
\- Oldham: £300,000
\- Rochdale: £275,000
\- Salford: £305,000
\- Stockport: £305,000
\- Tameside: £310,000
\- Trafford: £285,000
\- Wigan: £270,000
Shropshire
\- Shropshire: £305,000
\- Telford and Wrekin: £285,000
The confirmed regional caps indicate the maximum value of a new build home that can be purchase through the scheme, subject to buyers meeting the eligibility criteria and securing a mortgage from a participating lender.
#### Who can apply?
While full guidance is still to be published, the Government has confirmed that applicants will need to:
\- Be a first time buyer
\- Purchase a new build home in England as their main residence
\- Meet a household income cap
\- Be able to obtain a mortgage from a participating lender
Further information about eligibility requirements and participating mortgage lenders is expected ahead of the scheme launch
#### When will the scheme launch?
The Government expects to release detailed buyer guidance and open pre-registration ahead of the launch of the scheme.
Applications for equity loans are expected to open from February 2027, with the first homes due to be sold under the scheme from April 2027.
As further details are confirmed, we will assess which homes across our developments may qualify and provide updates for customers interested in using Your First Home.
#### Helping first time buyers make their move
While the industry awaits the launch of Your First Home, we remain committed to helping customers take their first step onto the property ladder.
We support buyers in a range of ways, including deposit contributions on selected homes and tailored incentives designed to make moving more affordable.
If you're looking to buy your first home, explore where we're building and speak to one of our friendly, experienced sales teams about the options currently available.
