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

 

BTL products cannot be combined with a non BTL rate.

This product is available for personal customers (employed or self employed), including professional landlords purchasing property in their personal name.

Not available to partnerships or companies.

Once NatWest has received your application NatWest will reserve the

mortgage rate. If you withdraw your application, or do not accept an

offer after committing yourself to the mortgage - either by sending in

the application form to NatWest or allowing a valuation to be carried

out, NatWest will collect the arrangement fee (NatWest will not collect

this if your application is declined or if the deal is no longer

available.)

The lender will calculate an applicants rental income cover based upon the applicants income level:

Up to £30,000 - 125% at Base Rate + 0.75%

£30,000 to £74,999 - 110% at Base Rate + 0.75%

£75,000 and over - 100% at Base Rate + 0.75%

Using the above rental cover tiers, your clients can now meet our 125% rental cover requirement through a combination of rental and free personal income.

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.

Please refer to Lender to check product availability

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.

The maximum loan amount for Professionals only over 90% LTV is £250k.

Guarantor mortgages are available subject to the following conditions: no Higher Lending Charge fee; guarantee for only 30% of the loan is required.

Product is not CAT standard.

As your Mortgage is on a fixed or discount rate, if you choose to make an overpayment on this mortgage you will 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.

You benefit immediately from overpaying directly to your mortgage.

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. This provides you with the benefit immediately.

Overpayment allowed up to 10% of balance outstanding per annum.

This mortgage includes a facility for additional secured borrowing. You can apply for extra borrowing at any time. Please see the product literature for details.

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