Martyn Bell, mortgage product manager at The Nottingham, said: “Since 2008 we have lent over £350 million to first time buyers. The reductions we have made to our three and five year fixed rates, at 95% and 90% loan to value, will hopefully mean we can help even more people trying to take their first step on the housing ladder. All come with a free valuation for both purchase and re-mortgages, whilst free legals also apply to re-mortgages on the 90% LTV products to keep set-up costs down.
“The new products have been priced extremely competitively and some now offer no booking or arrangement fees to support a growing demand from both existing homeowners and first-time buyers. As a top 10 building society, and estate agency, The Nottingham lends up to 95% loan to value to first-time buyers in its East Midlands heartland through its branches as well as directly by phone. In addition The Nottingham lends up to 90% LTV nationally throughout England and Wales.”
