The Cambridge reintroduce low deposit options for customers in their heartland

November 26, 2020

The Cambridge have announced that they have reintroduced two products for customers who are only able to access a 10 per cent deposit. These low deposit options are offered exclusively to customers in the Cambridgeshire area.

After withdrawing their previous 90 per cent LTV mortgage offering in March due to the impact of the Coronavirus outbreak, the Society are reintroducing these low deposits options exclusively to support new buyers, home movers and those looking to change lender in their heartland, further demonstrating their commitment to helping people in their local community have a home.

Under the 90 per cent LTV umbrella, The Cambridge are offering a two-year fixed rate at 3.79 per cent, and a five-year fixed rate at 3.99 per cent. Both products are offered with a £199 application fee, an £800 completion fee and a maximum loan size of £525,000.

The Cambridge join a limited number of lenders who are offering customers with low deposit products. With the Chancellors stamp duty holiday for properties up to £500,000 still in place, the Society hopes that these lending options will offer the best support to buyers, especially those looking to purchase their first home and wanting to take advantage of the stamp duty freeze to get onto the housing ladder.

Matthew Barber, Mortgage Manager at The Cambridge, comments: “We know that having to withdraw these low deposit mortgage options had an impact on those looking for higher loan to value products to buy their home, especially first-time buyers in our region. We’re delighted that we are now in a confident position to be able to support our local customers once again. My team of Mortgage Advisers are looking forward to continuing to help customers have a home.”
