Replacement mortgages for HTB: mortgage guarantee scheme

January 4, 2017

Aldermore has introduced new residential mortgage products as well as new first-time buyer deals following the closure of the Help to Buy  (HTB) mortgage guarantee scheme.

Commenting on the new product range, Charles Haresnape, Group Managing Director, Mortgages, at Aldermore, said: “Our new products for 2017 offer something for everyone, whether it is lower rates or the ability to overpay without penalty.

“Additionally, we are proud to continue offering 95% LTV products to those with low deposits. With our research showing that the closure of the Help to Buy: mortgage guarantee scheme could mean over half of first-time buyers having to adjust their purchase plans, Aldermore has reaffirmed its commitment to offering the products our customers truly want, especially where there is a very clear demand.

“Aldermore has always listened carefully to our brokers and customers to make sure our product range gives them the best possible option for their situation, and our individual underwriting process that looks at applicants on a case by case basis means that no-one will be unfairly penalised by a computerized approach.”
