How does the mortgage work?

We’ll lend money to help you buy and renovate the property.

We’ll release up to 80% or 90% of the purchase price or value of the property and subsequently, the money required for the renovation costs. As you continue with your renovation, staged payments of up to either 80% or 90% of your increased property value will be released – this will help you keep tabs on your budget and planning.

This type of mortgage may be suitable if you are able to make a cash deposit on your property and fund the early stages of the build.  We normally recommend 15%  to 20% of your total budget as a good starting point to begin your renovation.

Once your renovation is complete and the energy efficiency of your property is improved, you can lower your interest rate through our C-Change discounts.
