YOUR HOME MAY BE REPOSSESSED IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP REPAYMENTS ON YOUR MORTGAGE

Representative example

A mortgage of £400,000.00 payable over 13 years on our Standard Variable Rate currently at 8.44% with a discount of 2.59%, giving a current rate payable of 5.85% for 24 months, then on our Standard Variable Rate currently at 8.44% with a discount of 1.00%, giving a rate payable of 7.44% for 36 months (please note that the rate payable will never fall below 3%). This will be followed by our Standard Variable Rate currently at 8.44% for the remainder of the mortgage term. This would require 24 monthly payments of £3,676.94, followed by 36 payments of £3,971.87, followed by 96 payments of £4,117.41. The total amount payable would be £627,324.58 made up of the loan amount plus interest (£225,471.58), a mortgage funds release fee of £35, an application fee of £199, a completion fee of £999, a valuation fee of £525 and a mortgage exit fee of £95.
