5% cashback deal from UCB Home Loans

UCB Home Loans has launched a new mortgage providing borrowers with 5% cashback. The product is a five-year tracker based on the BBR + 1.99%, giving it a current interest rate of 5.99%.

The mortgage is available to both first-time buyers and remortgagors. Loan to value (LTV) is 85%, effectively providing the borrower with 90% of the purchase price when the 5% cashback is included. A £295 arrangement fee applies to the mortgage, plus a processing fee which varies from £199 up to £100,000, to £1 per £1,000 borrowed over £300,000.

Charles Reed, managing director of UCB Home Loans, said: ‘Nationwide’s latest figures show the average deposit a first-time buyer needs to raise has increased dramatically over recent years, from £5,000 in 1996 to over £18,000 in 2001 for the UK, and over £31,000 in London.

‘Cashback has been a regular and popular feature in our product portfolio and this product may appeal to first-time buyers, who often find their savings are stretched to cover all the expenses of a property purchase.’

Redemption penalties apply for the first five years and are on a sliding scale; for the first three years it is four months’ interest plus 100%, 80% and 60% respectively of cashback.
