Nationwide rates
Nationwide typically provides fixed rates of 2 or 5 years for existing customers, as well as 2-year trackers.
How long will the product transfer take?
After we apply, the process is relatively fast. Mortgage offers are typically given right away, and you can choose for your rate to start either next month or on the end date of your product. If you’re changing your rate, borrowing more, or adjusting other terms like switching to interest-only, it might take more time due to extra checks and underwriting.
Can I borrow extra money?
To borrow additional funds, we will need to complete two separate applications. One of our advisers can help you with this.
Eligibility:
- Property ownership must be standard
- Must be no more than two applicants
- Mortgage accounts must be less than one month in arrears
- No subsequent charges on the mortgaged property at the time of starting the application (including Help to Buy equity loans)
- Property must not be let
- Mortgage must be paid by direct debit
- Mortgage account must not have a nominal balance
- Minimum loan is £10,000
What does staying with your current lender mean for you?
- It’s quicker and easier than a remortgage
- It can be done in just 15 minutes
- Nationwide does not require credit checks, income checks, or valuation fees
- Secure a favourable rate 4 months before your current product expires
- As long as the mortgage is up to date, bad credit or missed payments won’t matter
Product transfer process
- Gather Information: For instance, we will need to know the account number for your mortgage. Nationwide account numbers can be found on letters Nationwide have sent you. We will need this to access your account and review your options.
- You will receive quotes from us: We will send over a few quotes quickly and give you time to look over these.
- Review options: When you’re ready, look over the product transfer options that Nationwide offers. You might need to compare various interest rates, terms, and features to find the best option. We’re here to support you throughout the process, so if you’re uncertain about which option to choose, we can assist you in making the best decision.
