Self Build

If you're planning to build your own home, you'll need a specialist motgage to cover the cost of the building process.
  • Pre-determined stages will be agreed with the lender at application stage but will normally include: purchase of land, foundations in, walls up, roof on, plastered, fully complete.

  • Whilst payments in arrears will keep the costs lower, some lenders will lend in advance of each stage meaning you put up less of your money throughout the build.

  • As self build finance tends to be at slightly higher rates, we can ensure a suitable follow-on product is lined up once the building work is complete.

  • Some things to consider are contingency funds, who will project manage, what timescales you will be looking at, what the plan is for the property post-completion, what planning permission you have, any restrictions on the land, warranty in place post-completion. As this is a complex project, the sooner advice is sought the more likely of getting the outcome you want.

  • As a growing part of the market, there are more and more lenders launching new products to facilitate the purchase of holiday lets. If you want to start the discussion as to how you might be able to join the holiday let movement yourself, click here.
