Are you currently renting but dreaming of owning your own home in Huddersfield?
Skipton Building Society is offering an exciting opportunity with their Track Record Mortgage – a 100%
mortgage solution tailored for renters like you who are ready to leap into homeownership.
What is the Track Record Mortgage?
The Track Record Mortgage is specifically designed for renters. Instead of requiring a traditional deposit,
Skipton Building Society uses your proven record of paying rent to determine your borrowing capacity.
No Deposit Mortgage
With this mortgage you don’t need a deposit to apply, making homeownership more accessible.
Enjoy the security of a fixed interest rate for the first five years of your mortgage term, ensuring
predictable monthly payments.
Skipton Building Society won’t charge completion fees, helping you save on upfront costs.
Who Can Apply for a 100% Mortgage?
To be eligible for the Track Record Mortgage, you must not have owned a property in the UK in the last
three years. You need a reliable rental payment history and no missed credit commitments in the last 6
months. You also need to be aged 21 or over.
The Track Record Mortgage is open to people looking to borrow up to £600,000.
How Much Can I Borrow on a 100% Mortgage?
The amount you can borrow is determined by your rental payment history and financial circumstances.
Skipton Building Society offers an interest rate of 5.55% fixed until 31 August 2029, after which it reverts
to the Residential Mortgage Variable Rate (RMVR) of 6.79%.
There are early repayment charges if you repay your mortgage early or exceed your 10% annual
overpayment allowance during the fixed term.
There is no charge for valuing properties under £1.5 million for mortgage purposes, and while a deposit
isn’t required, you can use your savings or a gifted deposit (subject to criteria) to reduce your borrowing
amount.
You can purchase a new build house but not new build flats.
If you receive housing benefits as part of Universal Credit, the Quick Calculator will exclude this amount
when determining your loan eligibility.
