This product includes a Mortgage Current Account.

A Mortgage Reserve is a secured overdraft facility on a Mortgage Current Account which enables customers with an Openplan Flexible Mortgage to borrow against the equity in their home. It is mandatory to have a Mortgage Current Account if you have an Openplan Flexible Mortgage.

 

Purchases 85% LTV max, whilst Remortgages and Additional Borrowing are restricted to a max LTV 80%

The ability to convert a Mortgage held on a Capital Repayment basis to Interest Only (either in full or in part) once the loan has completed is not available.

Lenders Interest Only limit of 75% and Product LTV maximums apply across the main Mortgage and any Reserve.

- Linked Current Account

- A Mortgage Current Account must be taken out with this mortgage in order to access the Mortgage Current Account Reserve facility. If you already have a Mortgage Current Account you will not be required to open a new Mortgage Current Account, instead, your existing account will be linked to your mortgage.

- Free valuation.

- Free legal service is not available should a customer choose not to use the appointed panel solicitor.

The Switch and Save option is available up to a max loan of £1m.

A capital reduction of 10% per annum can be made without incurring an early repayment charge. This will apply through the early repayment charge period. Please refer to Section 10 for details.

Following receipt of an overpayment or a lump sum reduction, the lender will immediately reduce the mortgage balance on which the interest is charged. This means that you will receive the benefit straight away.

This mortgage includes a facility for additional borrowing without further approval. A Mortgage Current Account Reserve Facility is a secured overdraft available through a Mortgage Current Account, and can be used to draw down additional borrowing.

Any additional borrowing taken through the Mortgage Current Account Reserve will increase the amount of borrowing secured on your home. This means that if you fail to repay any amount borrowed your home will be at risk of repossession.

The amount of the Mortgage Current Account Reserve in this illustration is £0. However, the Mortgage Current Account Reserve may become available in the future and the interest rate charged on the Mortgage Current Account Reserve will be Woolwich Standard Variable Rate currently 4.99%

Information relating to the APR for the Mortgage Current Reserve can be made available should you choose to access or apply for funds at a later stage.

The Mortgage Current Account Reserve must be repaid in full if the main mortgage is repaid in full.

The Interest Only and Product maximum LTVs apply to both the Mortgage and any Reserve applied for e.g. If a customer remortgages their property which is worth £200k and they want to borrow £120k (60% LTV) on a 60% LTV product, they will not be eligible to apply for a Reserve in addition to this.

Where the maturity date of the requested mortgage is going to be later than the retirement date or age 70 of the youngest applicant (whichever is earliest), applications will be considered on an individual basis. - Refer to Lender.
