Natwest updates cladding policy

Natwest confirmed that it would offer mortgages to buildings with cladding, especially properties with A3 or B2 rates cladding systems.

It said that leaseholders in eligible buildings would need to complete and submit a leaseholder deed of certificate to the building freeholder.

Natwest said it would lend based on a new after repairs figure confirmed by a valuer on a valuation report before remediation work is completed.

The rule will apply to application receive before 9 January.
