I owned a house very briefly (lived in it for a year and then had to move out due to domestic abuse). Fleeing left me with nothing and my ex bought me out (only 10k equity which went on childcare for DS), so sadly he benefited from the first time buyer status in the long run. I now have no first time buyer rights which makes me feel slightly sick to think about. Can't get a LISA, and Help To Buy ISA doesn't exist anymore. Is there an alternative? Or do I just have to accept that my stupid decisions have cost me? Feeling slightly tearful and angry with myself.
