Assignable contract mortgage for £445,000 new build purchase

Aaron Strutt Image

Trinity recently secured an assignable contract mortgage for a first-time buyer purchasing a new build flat.

After renting for some time, he decided to purchase a flat after his parents agreed to gift him a substantial deposit.

As the property was originally bought off plan and was remarketed by another developer, he needed a specific reassignment mortgage.

Solution

Most of the banks and building societies do not like reassignment of contract mortgages, although there a couple of lenders offering terms.

Trinity approached a bank providing low rates with flexible acceptance criteria. It has a track record of producing fast mortgage offers, enabling clients to complete quickly.  

As our client was concerned about rates rising in the future, he locked into a fixed rate mortgage.

The bank also has an impressive retention policy ensuring customers can access new deals when their rates expire.
