If you are thinking of borrowing from Accord, make sure to familiarise yourself with exactly what they have to offer and you will be better positioned to make the right decision for you.
Borrowers who wish to borrow with Accord Mortgages should consider the following benefits and restrictions before making a final decision.
Accord Mortgages customers can benefits from the following:
Accord offer remortgaging up to a maximum 90% loan-to-value ratio (see below).
They accept remortgaging requests for a variety of reasons, including raising capital and home improvements. They do not, however, allow remortgaging for the purposes of raising capital for a business.
If you need to raise extra finance but do not wish to remortgage, you may be able to apply for a second charge mortgage.
This allows you to borrow more against the value of your home as a separate loan on top of your existing mortgage. Legally, a first mortgage has precedence over a second charge mortgage, hence the name.
How much you can borrow against your home or any other property will depend on your loan-to-value (LTV) ratio.
This is a metric lenders use to balance how much you are intending to leverage against your property versus the market value of the property. This takes into account both your existing borrowing and any new loans you are seeking to take out.
So, if your property is worth £100,000 and you have an existing mortgage for £50,000 and wish to borrow an additional £25,000 this would give you total borrowing of £75,000 against the £100,000 value of the house.
This means your borrowing would equal 75% of the value of your home and this is your loan-to-value figure.
