Hi I am just looking to get some advice I have 8K in savings and looking to get a new build property in September, where can I put my savings to get the greatest benefit from this?

If this is your first property purchase and it's for less than £250K (£450K in London) then a Help To Buy ISA would allow you to get some free government money towards it.
The best interest is from current accounts but leading up to a mortgage (?) isn't an ideal time to be getting a bunch of credit checks so you may find that traditional savings accounts are best.
