Clydesdale Bank is helping to get the New Year off to a good start for Scottish homeowners.
The Bank is waiving arrangement fees for new customers looking to re-mortgage. The offer – which has just launched - is available until Friday 13th February 2009.
A similar offer by Clydesdale and its sister organisation Yorkshire Bank in August 2008 was welcomed by homeowners across the UK.
In this latest offer, the Bank is waiving arrangement fees on a range of its fixed rate, offset and flexible payment mortgages for a limited time. This could mean a saving of up to £999 which is the current re-mortgage arrangement fee for some products. See table of examples below.
In addition, customers re-mortgaging from another lender won’t have to pay any legal or valuation fees providing their mortgage is over £30,000 and they use Clydesdale Bank’s appointed solicitors.
