Offset mortgages

New customers will no longer be able to apply for our Owner Occupier and Buy to Let Offset mortgage products. However, if you are an existing borrower, you will be able to apply for our Offset mortgage products for additional borrowing and product switches.

Additional borrowing Existing borrowers

The mortgage will be secured on your home. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
Please note: new customers can not apply for our Owner Occupier and Buy to Let Offset mortgage products, but existing borrowers can still apply for additional borrowing and product switches.

 

An Offset mortgage works in a similar way to a standard mortgage. However, it has an additional feature known as an Offset Saver savings account. This savings account is linked to the mortgage. The amount of money in the Offset Saver savings account is deducted from the mortgage on which interest is charged.

You can choose to offset your savings to either reduce your monthly payments or reduce the term of your mortgage.
