Skipton 100% LTV – ‘Track Record’ Mortgage

Skipton have introduced a product available up to 100% LTV for customers within the rental cycle.

Track Record Mortgage for First Time Buyers

For a long time now renters have been held back by the renting viscous circle of high rent, high outgoings to income ratio yet are still managing their bills well. Yet the same old question pops up, can that be used as evidence or even deposit when applying for a mortgage?

Well until now the answer was... No!

Skipton believe that needs to change. They will look in to renters history to see if the track record of repayments has been good and generally good account management has taken place, hence the name 'Track Record' Mortgage.

This could be a real boost for people renting who want to own their own home.
