Update to our residential affordability rates
On Tuesday 1 March we’re updating our residential affordability rates to reflect February’s Bank of England base rate increase.
Our affordability calculator will be updated to reflect these changes. Please use this calculator to make sure you get an accurate reflection of what we can lend your clients.
Pipeline Rules
Our usual pipeline rules will apply. All full mortgage applications (FMAs) already submitted on Introducer Internet by close of business on Monday 28 February won’t be affected by these changes. Any FMAs submitted from 6am on Tuesday 1 March, or where a material change is made to an FMA submitted before close of business on Monday 28 February, will be assessed using our updated lending policy.
How are we supporting the change?
We’re updating the SFI website affordability calculator and lending criteria.
