Products

The Everyday range aims to provide customers with a choice of simple and straightforward mortgages. It offers a selection of mortgage products designed to fit the needs of borrowers, whether a first time buyer, moving home, coming to the end of an existing Virgin Money deal or wanting to switch their mortgage from a current lender.

• Different rate periods mean that we suit the needs of different types of borrowers.
• Fixed Rate Mortgages – for those who work to a set budget. They provide security of a set monthly payment over a specific period of time.
• Tracker Rate Mortgages – for those that want a mortgage with an interest rate directly linked to the Bank of England. Any change in this is reflected in the mortgage interest rate.
• First Time Buyers - up to 95% LTV available, which is a fantastic proposition for clients looking to get on the property ladder with a low deposit.
• Fee Saver Options are available.
• Customers can make overpayments of up to 10% of their outstanding balance per calendar year without incurring an Early Repayment Charge. This can be done monthly or as a lump sum.
• Payment holidays are available once customers have had an Everyday Mortgage with us for nine months and providing that payments are up to date. These payment holidays can also be accumulated up to a maximum of 3 months and taken together, providing 27 consecutive payments have been made in full.

Our Greener Mortgages give customers access to a range of new-build products that are priced more competitively than their equivalent Core products, rewarding customers for purchasing an energy efficient home. The range includes Help to Buy Equity Loan and Shared Ownership options.

To qualify, customers must be purchasing a new-build residential home with a certified or predicted energy rating of A or B. This will be evidenced by an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), a Predicted Energy Assessment (PEA) or a Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) calculation.

These can be obtained from the Builder (site office, sales manager or housing authority) or government register and must be submitted to us as part of the mortgage application process, along with any other supporting documentation. Please also see our New Build lending criteria.

Our range of Flexible mortgages*, as the name suggests are flexible by nature. They are the fully flexible alternative to our Everyday mortgages. They change to fit customer needs; as their lives change so too can their mortgage.

• The flexible range comprises of Residential Trackers. Interest rates on Tracker mortgages are directly linked to the Bank of England Base Rate for a set period of time.
• Overpayments are unlimited and can be made regularly or as a lump sum, penalty free, providing the loan is not redeemed in full.
• Borrow back is available whereby customers can borrow back any previous overpayments (minimum £500).
• Underpayments are also a useful feature. If a customer has chosen to overpay, they then also have the option to apply to make lower monthly payments.
• Customers can even stop paying altogether until the overpayment is used up.
• Payment holidays are available once customers have had a Flexible Mortgage with us for nine months and providing that payments are up to date. These payment holidays can also be accumulated up to a maximum of 3 months and taken together, providing 27 consecutive payments have been made in full.

*Please note our Flexible mortgages are not currently available to new customers. All flexible features (with the exception of overpayments) must be applied for and are subject to the terms and conditions of your client’s mortgage and Virgin Money’s agreement.
