The 2026/27 £450,000 UK purchase-price condition is not exceeded by your entered target price of £250,000.00. This price comparison does not check first-time-buyer status, the 12-month period, mortgage, main residence, conveyancer, connected-person rule or any other qualification. Conveyancer requirements differ across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland; no local property transaction tax is calculated.
The modelled bonus is 4.00% of the full entered property price; this is not a required deposit amount.
Estimate the Lifetime ISA contributions and government bonus available under the 2026/27 rules, and compare charge-free and other-purpose full-pot withdrawals.
Monthly contributions are annualised and capped at £4,000 for each modelled tax year. The calculator applies the 25% bonus to the capped amount, assumes the same limits throughout the saving period, and excludes interest, investment growth, provider fees and future rule changes.
The target property price check compares your input with the £450,000 UK Lifetime ISA first-home limit only. It does not establish first-time-buyer status, account age, residence, mortgage, conveyancer or any other withdrawal condition; no local property transaction tax is calculated. A 25% charge is shown for an other-purpose withdrawal, but the calculator does not decide whether your withdrawal qualifies.
