HomeBuy helps people to get their first foot on the property ladder. HomeBuy also helps those people who wish to rent but cannot afford to pay market rents.
You can apply to HomeBuy through Moat. We are the government appointed local HomeBuy Agent for Essex, Kent and Sussex. This means that you only need to complete our online application form to find out details about all of the HomeBuy homes available in your area (including homes available through other HomeBuy providers).
Am I eligible?
HomeBuy is designed to help people, usually first time buyers, who cannot afford to buy a property that suits their household needs on the open market. All first time buyers can apply but social tenants and serving MoD personnel are usually given priority. With so many different options available through HomeBuy, we have produced a leaflet to clarify things for you.
