Apologies if this topic has already been covered.
I heard on the news that David Cameron had brought his plans for the Help to Buy scheme for under-40s forward; starting in Jan 2015. I also remember hearing that you had to register your interest in early 2015.
I have Googled how or where I would do this, but all I can find is news articles on the matter.
Can anyone point me in the right direction please? Or even just shed some more light on the scheme.
Thanks in advance.

Maybe I have missed something but help to buy has been around for a couple of years?

I know her earns £160,000 a year but to launch his own HTB scheme is very generous of him...

Yes sorry I should have specified it's the 20% reduction offer on so many newbuilds being built on brownland.
