It was announced this week that Halifax has reached a major milestone with the news that they have signed up their 50th house builder partner as part of their support for the Government’s NewBuy scheme. These 50 house builders represent a total of 69 individual builder brands.
As one of the leading lenders on NewBuy, to date, Halifax has helped over 1,400 buyers’ purchase through NewBuy – around 1 in 3 of all applications and completions on the scheme.
Since the launch of the NewBuy scheme in March 2012, Halifax has partnered with not only large UK-wide builders but has also worked with smaller local and regional builders to ensure these companies could also participate in the scheme.
