Let your solicitor know you are using a Help to Buy ISA as soon as possible, ideally when instructing them or immediately after your offer is accepted. You must close the ISA and provide the closing statement to your solicitor to claim the 25% bonus. Do not simply withdraw your money, or you may lose the bonus; you must specifically request to “close” the account for a property purchase.
