Htb isa

Hi, I know this is probably a stupid question but.... I'm gonna ask it anyway.

Would I be entitled to open a HTB ISA when I have previously had a joint mortgage? I owned a house with my ex partner but had to sell it when we split up.

    ....which means that you're no longer a first time buyer as far as the HTB ISA rules are concerned, so, no, you aren't eligible to open one.

    Nope, you won't be entitled to the HTB ISA.
