| Product Description This product includes a discount of 0.75% off the Society’s standard variable mortgage interest rate (currently 4.99%), for the term of the mortgage. The interest rate charged cannot go below 2%. |
| Product Features Legal Fee Incentive for Re-mortgages – The Society’s appointed Solicitor will act on behalf of the Society to complete the re-mortgage and the Solicitors costs and some of the essential disbursements will be paid by the Society. You will be asked to make an initial payment of £100 to cover the cost of the remaining fees and you will be asked to meet the cost of any third party fees (if they apply to you). Any additional work required which is not normally associated with a re-mortgage will be at your own cost. You are free to take legal advice and instruct Solicitors to act for you but this must be at your own cost.

Partial Lump Sum Repayments – up to 10% of the advanced amount may be repaid in any year of the product rate period without charge.
