Self-build

Self-build provides opportunities for buyers to choose the type of home they want and make sure it meets their needs.

As set out in Housing to 2040, Scotland’s first long-term national housing strategy, we want self-provided housing to become a mainstream housing option.

Self-build provides opportunities for buyers to choose the type of home they want and make sure it meets their needs.

We have developed a guide to self-building a home to help people who are new to self-build understand what's involved and where to find out more.

We offer a £6 million Self-Build Loan Fund that can provide loans up to £175,000 to eligible applicants unable to access standard bank lending. The loan is to help with construction costs for self-build projects. Find out more about the fund and apply online.
