New non-conforming deals from PHL

Platform Home Loans has launched two new products, an 18-month and a two-year discount mortgage.

The two-year product offers a 1.5% discount until 1/4/2004 and the 18-month deal offers a 1.75% discount until 1/10/2003. The two-year offer is thought to be the only one in the non-conforming sector. Both offer an LTV up to 95%.

Guy Batchelor, Platform Home Loans’ sales and marketing director, said: ‘We are concentrating on discount products following feedback from our intermediaries that their clients preferred these options, plus we have seen the cost of short-term fixed rate funding increase since the new year. The main benefit of these products will be that intermediaries can now give their clients the same breadth of choice as if they were recommending a high street lender’s products.’

The mortgages are available as full status, self-cert, purchase and remortgage. Redemption penalties are 6% in the first two years, 5% in the third year and 4% in the fourth year.
