Which type of first time buyer mortgage?

As a first time buyer, you may have lots of questions about how to get a mortgage and which type suits you best. For example, should you choose a fixed rate, a discount, capped or tracker mortgage? We can help you understand the difference between the various offers, and help you secure a mortgage that fits your circumstances. Here are some of the main mortgage types and ways to repay that you might want to consider:

- Fixed - pay a set rate of interest for an agreed period

- Tracker - your interest rises and falls in line with bank interest rates

- Discounted - offers a small discount on the lender’s standard variable interest rate

- Flexible - vary your monthly repayments

- Capped - your interest rate won’t rise above an agreed level for a set period of time

- Current account - these combine a banking account with a mortgage, allowing you to make overpayments and receive daily interest changes

- Offset - hold all of your other borrowings with the same lender

Special first time buyer mortgages

Because getting on the property ladder is becoming increasingly more difficult, there are several types of agreements tailor-made for first time buyers. Our new Family Equity Loan Plan is designed to let parents help their children while not having to gift large sums as a deposit. Other options include shared ownership, 100% or no deposit mortgages, guarantor arrangements or housing association co-purchases. Often you can find mortgages offering up to 5 times your salary.
