Mortgage is Portable

If you move house you may be able to transfer this mortgage to another property as long as you meet the conditions set out in the mortgage conditions booklet under ‘Transferring your loan to a new mortgage'.

Free Legal

PLEASE NOTE FAST TRACK IS AVAILABLE ON THIS PRODUCT.

Pension Linked depends on the end date of the Pension Policy maximum 57 years.

Abbey will undertake a review of sample cases (pre and post completion) where we may request evidence of income to confirm that this matches the information supplied to us when submitted.

Product is not CAT standard.

Abbey will give you a free standard mortgage valuation (costing up to £1,190).

Abbey will arrange and pay for the standard legal work in transferring your mortgage to be carried out.

You may make lump sum or regular overpayments at any time. Please refer to section 10 for details of any early repayment charges that may apply.

If there is an early repayment charge referred to in section 10, you may, without having to pay an early repayment charge, make additional capital repayments of up to 10% of the loan for each year. Overpayments in excess of 10% each year will attract an early repayment charge on the amount of the excess.

If the overpayment is used to reduce the amount you owe then the interest you pay will be recalculated immediately.

This mortgage includes a facility for additional borrowing without further approval. You may borrow additional money up to £750 to be able to complete your mortgage. Your conveyancer will tell you that additional money is required and request your written agreement to this. Alternatively, you should confirm this in writing to your conveyancer so that they may request it on your behalf. This would increase the total amount borrowed. Your monthly payment would increase based on the product rate in section 4 charged on the additional money. The same early repayment charge would apply as section 4 on the additional amount borrowed. This will be in addition to the early repayment charge payable on the money already borrowed. All money borrowed will need to be paid back in full by the end of the mortgage term. The total loan must not be above 90% LTV. If you wish to use this feature please contact Abbey National for a revised KFI.

THIS WILL INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF BORROWING SECURED ON YOUR HOME.

Remortgage Solution

(Available to remortgage customers only.)

Free Valuation

All Remortgage Solution customers will receive a free valuation for mortgage purposes, up to a maximum of £1,190, property value £2.5 million. Sometimes the property will be valued by external inspection when the surveyor will view the property from the road or footpath to gain an estimate of the value or by reference to an Automated Valuation Model (AVM). The customer will not be provided with a copy of the AVM or External Inspection. In certain circumstances we may need to arrange a full inspection; in these cases, the surveyor will contact the customer directly.

Free Legals

We also arrange and pay for the cost of legal work involved in transferring the mortgage, ensuring it will be undertaken professionally and speedily. However, your customer will be required to pay for the following third party fees above this limit if they apply

For leasehold properties – the landlord’s registration fee for registering the mortgage with the landlord in accordance with the terms of the lease

If the title to the property is unregistered – the additional land registry registration fee.

If any additional work is required, which is not normally associated with a remortgage, then this will be at your customer’s own cost. Your customer will be advised of the cost of additional work before any work is carried out.

If your client wishes to instruct their own solicitor, this will also be at their own cost. Should the client redeem their mortgage on or before 02/06/2013, the benefit must be repaid (a maximum of £200 must be repaid for legal contribution). However, the benefit won’t need to be repaid if a new mortgage is completed on the same day with Abbey. The repayment of benefit received will be in addition to any product related charge applicable.

All properties valued over £1 million and properties in Scotland must be referred to Abbey prior to submission.

For Homebuyer's Report fees, please refer to Lender.

The arrangement/booking fees are not refundable.

There is a re-inspection fee of £55 if one of the Lenders surveyors has to make an additional visit to a property before the lender releases any retained funds.

Borrowers need to pay by direct debit for all products.

Higher Lending Charges are calculated on the difference between 75% of the value of your home and the amount you wish to borrow. Added fees will not be included in this calculation.

Clawback of Remortgage Solution - £200.00
