In the Budget the Chancellor announced plans to extend shared-equity schemes to help people get on the housing ladder. However, the announcement has been welcomed with caution.
The aim of the scheme is to help homebuyers with small deposits buy a home of up to £600,000 by guaranteeing the loan. The scheme is due to start in January 2014 and will allow deposits as small as 5%.

For a helpful explanation of the scheme see this document from the treasury.
