Welcome to the Armed Forces Home Ownership Scheme website

Please note you are not eligible if you have LESS THAN 4 YEARS or MORE THAN 6 YEARS service (from your Enlistment Date).

The Armed Forces Home Ownership Scheme is a pilot scheme designed to help you buy a home to suit your needs, with some extra help to top up your mortgage. The scheme is designed specifically to provide assistance for qualifying service personnel to purchase a home on the open market.

If you are eligible, we could give an equity loan of between 15-50% of the value of the home you choose on the open market, usually through an estate agent. For example, if you qualify for a mortgage of £70,000 and have a deposit available of £10,000, you could potentially purchase a property worth up to £155,000.

To be eligible you must have between 4-6 years continuous service, and be unable to afford a suitable home on your own. For more details about eligibility for the scheme, click here.
