National Counties Building Society

The National Counties Building Society operates from Epsom in Surrey, UK. It is an independent society and is therefore not part of any larger banking group, as a mutual organisation there are no shareholders or dividends to pay from profits, the society uses profits for the benefit of members whilst keeping substantial assets available in its accounts. The society has over 63,000 customers, many of whom choose to operate their account via telephone or internet banking, in fact back in 1965 it was one of the first building societies to offer postal savings accounts, enabling members to open an account even if they did not live in the vicinity of the local branch.

The society does not use a credit scoring system to approve mortgages and each application is evaluated individually.

Fixed Rates, Discount Rates and Variable Standard Rates are all available and existing customers may be able to benefit from exclusive offers. Re-mortgages or secured loans are offered for home improvements or capital raising and existing homeowners who are looking to swap their mortgage lender will be welcomed.

If you choose a flexible, tracker or variable rate mortgage you will benefit from any changes in the Bank of England Base Rate but should remember that this can go up or down. If you choose a fixed rate then you will pay the same amount every month for the agreed offer period. Most products will charge an early repayment fee if you pay off all or part of your mortgage loan within the offer period. Interest will usually be charged annually until the end of any offer period.
