Our advisers work with clients across Maidstone to offer trusted mortgage and financial services. One of our most popular mortgage products is cashback mortgages. These mortgages are popular because they provide a financial boost when you need it most, whether to cover moving costs or home improvements. The cashback amount is typically a percentage of the mortgage value and is paid to you shortly after the mortgage completes. This can be a significant sum, providing you with extra funds that you can use as you see fit. Our team is here to help you understand the benefits and find the best cashback mortgage to suit your financial situation.
A cashback mortgage is an arrangement where the lender pays or rebates to the borrower a sum of money (or some other form of financial benefit/incentive) either on completion of the mortgage or at a later stage. The borrower can use the cashback to help pay some of their property purchase costs such as legal and surveying costs, stamp duty, removals charges, or home improvements and repairs.
The amount of cashback the borrower will receive depends on the lender’s requirements. Sometimes it is calculated as a percentage of the total mortgage advance and will therefore vary in value, or it may be a fixed and non-negotiable amount. Some mortgage providers insist that the borrower already holds (or opens) a current account with them before they qualify for cashback.
Cashback mortgages are usually associated with standard variable rate or tracker mortgages, although the rate of interest may or may not be higher. As well as applying an early repayment charge on these mortgages, if a cashback mortgage is redeemed before the end of the agreed term, the lender may ask the borrower to repay all or part of the cashback.
