The Self Build Loan Fund (SBLF) is open for applications from individuals and families who are unable to obtain mainstream self-build mortgage finance, for a maximum loan of £175,000.
The SBLF is a Scottish Government initiative, providing a time limited fund (to August 2025) to assist self-builders where they have been unable to obtain mainstream self-build mortgage finance. The fund is available Scotland wide to support additional housing provision across both rural and urban areas and administered by Communities Housing Trust. |
The fund will be available for up to 5 years but with an initial period of 3 years to 31 August 2025, all loans following this initial period must be repaid by 31 August 2026 by obtaining a mainstream mortgage upon completion of the project or by using the equity following sale of the existing home.
