Closed petition Extend the mortgage guarantee scheme to cover 100% mortgages

Support first time property buyers by reducing the deposit they require and encouraging lenders to provide 100% mortgages. Include an option for 100% mortgages as part of the mortgage guarantee scheme introduced in the 2021 Budget (which still requires buyers to provide a 5% deposit).

Due to COVID there have been many redundancies and pay cuts that has given people no choice but to move money from their savings, reducing their possible mortgage deposit.
