One of the many benefits of new builds is, that unlike older properties, these homes are eligible under the Government backed London Help to Buy scheme. Award winning developer, Countryside, currently has new homes available under the scheme at East City Point in Canning Town, E16 and St Paul’s Square in Bow, E3. Home hunters can get on the ladder with mortgage costs starting from as little as £659 per month for a one bedroom apartment at East City Point, more than half the cost of renting in the area [\[1\]](#_ftn1) and £817 per month at St Paul’s Square, saving purchasers over £500 a month in comparison to renting a similar property in the area [\[2\]](#_ftn2).
