Home Improvements with Help to Buy Loan
barristaintraining
Posts: 6 Forumite
Hi!
We are due to buy a property with a Help to Buy Equity loan next year. I am aware that any home improvements including structural alterations need prior approval from HTB.
My parents have (very kindly) said they'd like to give us a conservatory as a wedding gift :O! Yes, I know...
Has anyone got any experience with improvements and HTB? I have a bad feeling they'd reject such an application.
Any help much welcomed.

Under the terms of your loan certain types of home improvement are not permitted. If you wish to discuss what home improvements may be permitted, please contact the Customer Service team.

Prepare for a long wait. Presumably the firm who won this Government contract from Metropolitan did so by underbidding the others.I am a mortgage broker.
