Lloyd’s ‘Lend a Hand’ gives first time buyers 100% Mortgage
January 28, 2019
The ‘UK mortgages’ sector of Lloyd’s Bank is lending a hand with their new marketing drive giving first time buyers the chance to grab a 100% mortgage.
The only hidden request to the title is that the purchasers will require a 10% of the property price backed up by a family member(s) that will need to be placed in to a Lloyd’s bank saver account.
So a great deal so long as you can back things up with a little bit of cash for the bank to lend you the required mortgage amount (up to £500,000).
