One of the criteria for that scheme is "the value of the part of your home that you own must be enough to pay off any outstanding debts". I am not quite sure what that means, but it sounds like no negative equity cases, or have I misunderstood?No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -

If you are planning to downsize your new house will cost more than it should
If you are trying to buy your first house its almost impossible.0 -
