Choosing Your Mortgage

At Shepshed Building Society, we want to make your life easier.

We understand that choosing the right mortgage can be difficult. There are so many options, each with different advantages. However, there will always be one mortgage which suits your individual needs.

The Society's Standard Variable Rate (SVR) is currently 5.99% and the Bank of England Base Rate is currently 0.5%.

How does it work?
HomeBuy Direct allows you to buy a newly built home on a designated development with the assistance of two equity loans. One loan is from the Government, the other loan is from the Developer.

These two loans combined can cover up to 30% of the total purchase price, and Shepshed Building Society can provide a mortgage for the remaining 70% of the purchase price, subject to approval. Repayments on the mortgage will be made in the usual way, with nothing payable on the amount that the Government and Developer contributed for the first five years.

After these five years, you will start to pay a small annual fee on the two equity loans.
