First-time buyers are being urged to look into a discount scheme to help them get onto the property ladder.
Also aimed at those on low to medium incomes, the Open Market Shared Equity Scheme allows people to buy a home without having to fund its entire cost and is available in Scotland to those buying their first property and people in a priority access group.
This includes those buying their first home, as well as buyers aged 60 and over, people living in either council or housing association properties, disabled people, members of the armed forces and those who have left the services within the last two years.
