Current Mortgage Products and Rates

For mortgages on properties outside the Society’s local area (i.e. Cumbria), the maximum loan to value is 75%.

At the present time the maximum loan that the Society will consider within the local area is 90% of the value of the property. You should contact the Society to ascertain the maximum loan to value ratio available in any particular case.

With effect from 01/04/2009 the Society’s current standard variable rate is 4.15%. (Typical overall rate for comparison 4.3%)

If the property offered for mortgage is not for owner occupation you should contact the Society by telephone for an initial discussion regarding your requirements.

Discounts or incentives may be granted for mortgages on owner occupied properties under the following schemes:

FEES PAID SCHEME

This scheme is available to properties in Cumbria only and the minimum loan amount is £30,000.00.

On remortgages, mortgages on existing owner occupied property and new purchases, as long as the Society’s nominated Solicitors, Gaynham King and Mellor, are appointed, the Society will offer the following:

Mortgage valuation fee paid;

If you require a Homebuyers Report in addition to the mortgage valuation this can be arranged at the same time, but you would have to pay the additional fee.

Legal costs paid including disbursements, but not including Stamp Duty

This is on the assumption that the transaction is uncomplicated. If any complications arise which involve the Solicitors in additional work you will be required to pay any additional legal fees, but these will be agreed between you and the Solicitors before the additional work is carried out.

If you withdraw from the transaction or fail to take up the mortgage advance then you will become responsible for all the legal costs without a contribution from the Society.
