There is also a Scottish Government scheme called Mortgage to Equity (MSE).This scheme is also part of the Homeowners Support Fund. It allows homeowners who can no longer afford their mortgages and who have at least 25% equity in their property to reduce their level of secured debt. The Government will take a financial stake in your home. You will still own your home and continue to have responsibility for maintaining and insuring it but you will reduce the amount you have to pay to your lender every month.

It is important to seek advice early if you are having trouble meeting your mortgage payments.
