π Dreaming of owning your first home but can’t scrape together the deposit? Metro Bank just launched something new that might be your golden ticket! Introducing their 100% mortgage with a twist β perfect for first-time buyers struggling to save up. But there’s a catch!


You’ll need a bit of family help. This innovative mortgage requires a close relative, like Mum, Dad, or even your gran, to step in as a joint borrower. They won’t own a piece of your future home but will help secure the loan by sharing responsibility for the mortgage.

Perfect for those who can’t count on a deposit but have family ready to lend a helping hand without diving into their own savings. π
Metro Bank’s new option is also open to current homeowners who meet the eligibility criteria. Director Charles Morley says, “Itβs about helping family help you – without compromising ownership.”
Think it sounds too good to be true? There are conditions! Itβs not available for new-builds or properties above shops, and thorough affordability checks are required. It’s a five-year fixed-rate deal with terms up to 35 years, and there are no product or valuation fees.
While 100% mortgages are making a comeback after disappearing post-financial crisis, it’s essential to weigh the risks. If the main borrower encounters financial troubles, the family member on the loan is still on the hook. π‘π
Itβs an exciting chance for those whose homeownership dreams feel out of reach. Could this be the solution you’ve been waiting for?
