First time buyer offers and schemes
95% Mortgages
A 95% mortgage allows you to borrow up to 95% of the value of the property you wish to purchase.
This means you could get your new home sooner than you think, with a deposit of at least 5% but less than 10%.
The property you’re purchasing should be worth less than £400,000 and not a new build property.
Co-Ownership Mortgages
If you want to buy your first home, but cannot afford to do so without help, we may be able to help you along with the Co-Ownership Housing Association.
Cashback Mortgages
Take out a first time buyer exclusive mortgage with us and get £250 cashback, paid to your solicitor on the day of drawdown of the mortgage.
Offer can be changed or withdrawn at any time. Early repayment charges may apply. Max LTV 90%.
