Deposit Contribution

Own a new build home with a 5% deposit on us

Saving for a house deposit can feel like one of the biggest barriers to buying a home. With our Deposit Contribution scheme, you could get a 5% deposit boost, cutting the saving time so that you can start the moving plans.  

On selected Gleeson homes and developments, we can help with the deposit, giving you the boost you need to get moving. 

Need a deposit boost?

Whether you’re a first-time buyer, currently renting, or ready to make your next move, saving for a new home deposit can take time. Our Deposit Contribution scheme is designed to help make buying a brand-new Gleeson home feel more achievable.

Instead of waiting to build up your savings, you could benefit from a contribution of up to 5% towards your deposit on selected homes, helping you move into a high-quality, energy-efficient new home sooner.  
 
Subject to eligibility criteria, selected specialist mortgage lenders will accept the housebuilder contribution, allowing you to buy a new home without needing a deposit of your own.
