Borrow Back Allowed. Any overpayments made are paid into a prepayment reserve. You may borrow back from this reserve at any time, subject to the Lenders terms and conditions, as long as you borrow a minimum of £1000 and if the current mortgage payments are up to date.

Funds borrowed back are a drawdown from this reserve, and the interest rate applied will reflect that of the rate being charged on the tracker product at that time. The rate will be applied until the end date of the incentive period of that tracker product.

All drawdowns from your Prepayment Reserve will be subject to an administration fee (currently £20).

Free basic valuation

You can make lump sum or regular overpayments. The amount you owe will reduce immediately on receipt of any overpayments and interest calculated on the reduced balance daily. Over the longer term, this can mean reduced monthly payments or a shorter mortgage term.

This mortgage includes a facility for additional secured borrowing. With your FREESTYLE mortgage you can apply for Credit Reassessment.

After you mortgage has been running for 6 months, the lender can look at any changes in you income, your expenditure and the value of your home to determine whether you could borrow any more against your mortgage. The Lender will charge a fee currently £99 for credit reassessment and you also incur a valuation fee and legal fees.

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