An offset mortgage lets you use your savings to help reduce the interest you pay on your mortgage and could save you money in the long term. However often the rates on offset mortgages can be higher than a standard deal so our calculator will help you work out if an offset deal could be right for you. Of course there are lots of other things to consider so it’s worth speaking to us too and we can run through the options with you.
There are a number of criteria that must be taken in to account when calculating exactly. These could include but are not limited to:
Your monthly outgoings or regular commitments
Whether your income is a basic salary or includes bonus, commision or overtime
Whether you are self employed
The amount of deposit you have
Your age and whether you are borrowing past your retirement date
The lender however has the final input in to determining how much you can borrow. Each lender has their own criteria and as a broker we are perfectly placed to match you to the right lender for your borrowing requirements.
The calculators do not have the final say in how much you can borrw, your repayments etc., but this is where our expertise and experience in the field come in to play. We can sometimes make available a higher borrowing by taking your personal circumstances in to account.
