MY PRODUCT COMMENTS: The initial rate is ‘top of the shop’ for applicants with exactly a 20% deposit. To compensate the underlying rate is higher than average – therefore you must be ‘willing and able’ to remortgage when the fixed rate expires.
MY LENDER COMMENTS: Platform Home Loans Limited has consistently positioned itself on price this year. Their income multiples can be as high as 5 times salary and they will consider income from second jobs, trust funds, occupation pensions, profit from let properties, Working Tax Credits and Child Tax Credits which can set them apart from other lenders.
