Looking for UK banks offering Islamic Home Purchase Plans? Fraser Bond explains how Sharia-compliant home finance works, the leading UK providers, eligibility requirements, and what to consider when choosing a halal alternative to a conventional mortgage.
A Home Purchase Plan (HPP) is a Sharia-compliant alternative to a conventional mortgage. Instead of lending money and charging interest (riba), the finance provider purchases or co-owns the property with the customer using an approved Islamic finance structure. The customer then makes agreed payments that increase their ownership share over time while paying for the provider's share of the property.
The UK is one of the world's leading centres for Islamic finance outside the Middle East, with several banks and specialist providers offering FCA-regulated Home Purchase Plans for eligible buyers.
Fraser Bond helps buyers, investors, landlords, and developers understand their property finance options while providing expert property consultancy across London and the UK.
