Notes

Mortgages are Portable

If you move house you can transfer this mortgage to another property subject to the following terms and conditions.

Where an early repayment charge (including repayment of a cashback) becomes payable because you are paying off the mortgage in full, we will refund all or part of the charge if;

(a) you complete a new mortgage on a different property with us at the same time as you pay off this mortgage, or within three months of the date when you do so, and

(b) the new mortgage is on the same terms as your present mortgage (ignoring any difference in the amount lent under the new mortgage).

We will refund the early repayment charge in full if the new mortgage is on the same terms as this mortgage and is for the same amount or more than the amount required to redeem this mortgage.

If the amount Royal Bank of Scotland lend you under the new mortgage with us is less than the amount needed to redeem this mortgage, Royal Bank of Scotland will refund that part of the early repayment charge which would have been payable on the amount replaced by the new mortgage.

UP TO 95% LTV AVAILABLE FOR REPAYMENT MORTGAGES (90% LTV FOR INTEREST ONLY).

 

Fast track is available for applications up to and including 75% LTV AND for

maximum loan of £500,000 AND where the customer is a UK resident and a UK

national.

Brokers have the option to carry out their own verification and

certification of clients' proof of identity and proof of address

documentation providing this meets the standard evidence set out within the

guidance for the UK Financial Sector issued by the Joint Money Laundering

Steering Group (JMLSG).

Please refer to the application tab notes for application packaging requirements.

All loans arranged on interest only must have a suitable plan in place to repay the capital by the end of the term. We do insist that the investment plan covers the full interest only amount and is identified on the application form. For applications in excess of £1m evidence of repayment vehicle will be required.

Guarantor mortgages are available subject to the following conditions: no Higher Lending Charge fee; no need to be a property owner; guarantee for only 30% of the loan is required and Guarantor must have adequate life insurance.

Product is not CAT standard.

If you choose make an overpayment on this mortgage you may be liable to an early repayment charge. The amount of this charge will be based on the calculation method detailed in Section 10 of this illustration and the amount of the overpayment.

Overpayments are allowed up to 10% of balance outstanding per annum.

You benefit immediately from overpaying directly to your mortgage: This is because if you make an overpayment or lump sum payment then the amount you owe, and so the amount of interest you pay, is reduced immediately.
