ANNOUNCEMENTS
CHANGES TO OUR LOAN-TO-INCOME AND 90% LTV DEALS
We’ve got good news about our 90% LTV deals and an update on changes to our loan-to-income policy.
Helping more customers with our 90% LTV deals
On Thursday 4 March, our 90% LTV deals, currently only for first time buyers, will be made available to next time buyers and remortgage customers. All of our 90% LTV deals will be available up to a maximum property value of £500,000 and with a maximum term of 30 years. They’re not for flats, maisonettes or new build.
Changes to maximum loan-to-income
On Thursday 4 March, our maximum loan-to-income will be reduced to 4.49x where the LTV is more than 80%. This excludes remortgage applications with no additional lending, and our existing loan-to-income cap of 4.49x where the LTV is more than 85% remains in place.
At the same time, we will increase the maximum loan-to-income for all Interest Only and Part and Part applications to 4.49x.
In addition to basic pay, 100% of pension and allowable benefit income will be used in the loan-to-income calculation.
DIPs submitted after 8pm on Wednesday 3 March will be assessed using our new policy. Customers already in the pipeline will not be affected by this change.
