Product Name and Criteria Changes

We’ve made a series of product updates and criteria improvements today, designed to offer greater flexibility and accessibility for a wider range of borrowers. 

The changes include the renaming of the our core mortgage product ranges to clearly reflect the needs and circumstances of modern borrowers:

  • ‘Standard Residential’ is now ‘Everyday Residential’
  • ‘Non-standard’ becomes ‘Credit Revive’, with the maximum loan-to-value (LTV) increased from 80% to 85%
  • ‘Impaired Credit’ becomes ‘Credit Restore’ 

In addition to the new naming, maximum loan sizes across both Credit Revive and Credit Restore have increased from £500,000 to £750,000. 

We’ve also introduced improvements to our credit matrix, including a more inclusive approach to borrowers with past credit blips. 

Everyday Residential cases can now be accepted with one missed payment in the last 12 months on either secured or unsecured credit. Previously, the policy excluded any missed payments in the last two years. Furthermore, the allowable limit on CCJs (including parking fines) has increased from £250 to £500 across all three product ranges. 

The updates are part of our new approach to lending, known as The Bucks Way, which prioritises clarity, flexibility and common sense. We’re focused on our well-defined lending areas, aimed at maximising transparency for brokers and their clients. 

Here’s what our Head of Mortgage Sales, Claire Askham, had to say about the changes:

“We know that life isn’t always straightforward, and these changes reflect that reality. By updating our product names and lending criteria, we’re making it easier for brokers to match their clients to the right mortgage solution, without unnecessary barriers. 

“Our aim is to be fair, transparent and accessible. Whether it’s supporting borrowers recovering from a minor credit issue or helping more people access finance at higher LTVs, we want our criteria to keep pace with our customers’ circumstances. It’s all part of doing things The Bucks Way, by putting people first and delivering common-sense lending that works in the real world.”
