Self Build Mortgages

Building your dreams and aspirations

In recent years, many people are turning to the option of building their own property as a viable alternative to buying a ready-made house. There is no denying the attraction of building a house in the location of your choice, having an input into the design and seeing your dream become reality in bricks and mortar. Additionally, a saving of up to 30% can usually be achieved by self-building as opposed to buying a new property from a developer.

However, the thought of financing the project can often deter people, but here at Signature, we can help. Obtaining a Self Build Mortgage need not be difficult with some lenders allowing you to borrow up to 95% of land value and 95% of build costs. Cash flow also need not be a problem as payments can often be arranged to meet build costs at appropriate stages of the self-build development. Additionally, it is often possible to remain in your existing property until your new house is built, therefore saving money on rent and moving costs.

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage or any other loan secured on it. Think carefully before securing other debts against your home.
