Leek United Building Society Mortgage Products

Discount mortgages: These mortgages give a 5yr discount from the Society's Standard Variable Rate (SVR), this means that your mortgage payments may fluctuate but the discount amount will always remain the same. So for example, if your discount rate is 2% and the SVR is 5% you will pay an interest rate of 3%. This product may be affected by the Bank of England Base Rate.

Fixed Rate mortgages: You can apply for a fixed rate loan over 2, 3 or 5yr period. These products give you the security of knowing exactly how much your monthly payment will be. The minimum amount you can borrow is £20,000 and the maximum amount is £500,000, if you are purchasing a property then the maximum loan will be 90% of the property value, if you are raising capital then the maximum amount you can borrow will be 75%.

Buy to Let mortgages: You can apply for a discounted rate over 3 or 5 years and this will affect the interest rate you pay. The maximum loan to value will be 75% and the minimum loan is 20,000.
