When you’re ready to buy:
You will need to complete and send an Investor Declaration Form to your conveyancer.
They will complete the Conveyancer Declaration Form and send both to us. We will release your funds within 30 days.
What if something goes wrong?
Buying a house is complicated, so don’t worry if something doesn’t go smoothly. If it turns out your conveyancer needs more than 90 days to complete your purchase, they can apply for extended access to your LISA funds. If they don’t apply for an extension your withdrawn funds are subject to the government withdrawal charge.
If the sale falls through for any reason, simply return the funds to your LISA and they will continue to earn interest and receive the government bonus on your deposits.
