Teachers BS launches one-year discount variable rate
Teachers Building Society has launched a one-year discount variable rate mortgage, as an alternative to mitigating rate shocks.
The product has no fee and is open to both teachers and non-teaching staff.
It is available up to 80 per cent LTV and priced at 3.99 per cent for teachers or 4.19 per cent non-teachers. An early repayment charge of three per cent applies.
The mutual said the product gave another option to borrowers who did not want to remortgage onto longer term deals or be stuck on a standard variable rate (SVR).
Teachers Building Society will allow current members or borrowers from elsewhere to refinance with them. The product is only available to existing homeowners.
David Leek, commercial director at Teachers Building Society, said: “Many homeowners looking for a new mortgage are currently facing a choice between accepting a longer term deal that’s more expensive than their previous one or waiting on a lender’s SVR.
“Our new shorter term variable rate mortgage draws on our roots of doing things differently and has been designed to offer an alternative option.
“Supporting teachers to get on the housing ladder has been our core purpose since forming in the 1960s. Part of that support means helping them in more challenging financial circumstances, like the economic situation we’re now facing.”
