Mortgage support

Got a question?

  • If you're planning to support the government scheme to house Ukrainian refugees, we're supporting you by making the process as simple as possible.

    You won't need to notify us if you're providing:

    • a room(s) in your own home (current limit of 2 lodgers will not apply)
    • a residential property you own (there’s no need to request consent to lease but you'll need to obtain a tenancy agreement)
    • your Buy To Let property (normal mortgage and letting conditions apply, and you need to obtain a tenancy agreement).

    It's important you consider whether by providing this support you are still able to afford your household bills, pay your mortgage and it doesn’t put you in financial difficulty. You may wish to look at any government guidance issued.

    You should also check with your building/contents insurer to see if you need their consent.

  • If you are on a variable rate and there is a change to the Bank of England bank rate we may change your interest rate and if we do we will recalculate your monthly mortgage payment. If we do recalculate your monthly repayment, we will let you know what your new payment is.
