YOUR HOME MAY BE REPOSSESSED IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP REPAYMENTS ON YOUR MORTGAGE.

85 per cent mortgages explained

If you want to balance a low deposit with a competitive rate of interest, an 85 per cent mortgage could be a very fitting deal.

The 85 per cent refers to the amount of money you can borrow towards the total purchase price of your prospective new home. It is also known as the loan to value or LTV ratio.

If your new home will cost you £200,000, you can borrow £170,000 towards it with an 85 per cent mortgage. This would mean you would have to pay £30,000 upfront as a deposit.

Since most mortgage deals require anything from 20 per cent to 40 per cent upfront, an 85 per cent deal could be great if you are a first time buyer and struggling to raise the capital you need to get on the housing ladder.

An 85 per cent mortgage is fairly common on the market, with most lenders offering this loan to value ratio on some of their deals. Less common - but still achievable - are mortgages with 90 per cent LTV and sometimes even 95 per cent. These are rare, though, and you might find that you face inferior conditions in other areas of the mortgage, such as the interest rate, the length of the term or the arrangement fee.

Therefore, if you are in a position to raise the 15 per cent for the deposit, an 85 per cent mortgage could work out to be the best option for you.

Read more about getting on the housing ladder in our guide.
