Fill in applicant's name
It may seem like an obvious step but it is very important. This calculator will need to be printed or saved as a PDF and sent to us as part of the application form so it’s important that the applicant’s name is included.
Mortgage and affordability details
Fill out all of the mortgage details (Loan amount, term, etc.) and the affordability details (Dependants, remuneration, other essentials outgoings, etc.)
Keep the following in mind when completing the calculator to ensure that all the details are captured correctly:
i. | General Home Insurance Premiums - Other Properties: This refers to those with multiple properties and not for the applicant’s new home. If you have additional properties please input the total insurance payment for your additional properties here. |
