Mortgage-free options exist for first-time buyers, where lenders provide 100% or near-100% deals in some markets, with cashback incentives or deposit-relief incentives for eligible applicants. Standard details include 100% LTV mortgages for qualified buyers (often with age, income, and affordability criteria) and fixed-rate terms for a set time; government or lender programs can offer deposit relief or cashback on completion. Eligibility generally requires a period of rent payment history, no prior owned property within a specified window, and property type restrictions. Offers vary by country, and programs change over time. Consult local lenders’ pages for up-to-date terms and eligibility. Examples show some UK lenders publicly advertise 100% or near-100% options or cashback schemes for first-time buyers, along with guidance on deposits, stamp duty relief, and affordability calculations. Confirm with local lenders for Milan or broader Italy, as programs differ by region and policy.
A good news article might present both sides of a story, but try to fact-check claims by both sides, and bring in supporting evidence. That’s the key differentiating factor of quality journalism - helping bring facts to the forefront rather than let people on either side spin the facts for their purposes. kkotak on May 21, 2020
