First-time buyer. A first-time buyer (FTB) is a term used in the British and Irish property markets, and in other countries, for a potential house buyer who has not previously owned a property. A first-time buyer is usually desirable to a seller as they do not have to sell a property, and as such will not involve a housing chain.
First-time home buyers at seven-year high. The number of first-time buyers climbing on to the property ladder rose by more than a fifth last year to a seven-year high. A Halifax review said the number of buyers joining the UK property market for the first time jumped by 22% to 326,500 in 2014, which follows a 23% increase the previous year. The average cost of a home bought by a first-time buyer rose 9% to Â£171,870 compared with a year ago. However, the average cost of a deposit for this type of buyer fell 7% over the same period to Â£29,218.
