New graduate deal from Scottish Widows

Scottish Widows Bank has launched a product aimed at graduates struggling to get on the property ladder.

The Graduate Mortgage allows individuals to borrow up to 100% LTV plus another 2% to cover associated costs. This 2% must be repaid within the first 10 years of the mortgage. The mortgage is a BBR tracker with a 0.25% discount off the BBR for the first six months, with a rate of 3.75%. It then reverts to BBR+1.25%.

The product is available to those who graduated from a British university in the last five years and have been employed for the last year.

Gordon Brown, business development manager of Scottish Widows Bank, said: ‘By offering this 102% mortgage we are aiming to help graduates onto the property ladder quickly. Traditionally, on leaving university graduates don’t have a deposit and struggle to enter the property market. While saving money for a deposit prices may continue to increase and the property ladder can remain just out of their grasp.’

Redemption penalties are set at the repayment of the free valuation and legal fees in the first three years. The product carries no arrangement fee.
