General  points

In addition to the specific information that will be taken into account in agreeing additional borrowing, such as the value of your property and your income, there are some other general points that currently apply to all C&G mortgages which you need to know about:

  • You cannot change the term over which your new loan is due to run within six months of it starting.
  • You can apply to borrow more on your mortgage so long as it's been at least six months since you took out your mortgage.
  • If you’re borrowing more than 75% of the property's value, you must take out your mortgage on a repayment basis, not interest-only

The table below shows some of the fees you may need to pay when you apply for a C&G mortgage. To find out which fees may apply to you please speak to one of our mortgage experts.

Fee Amount Brief description
Mortgage account fee £265 You may need to pay this fee which covers the setting up, routine maintenance and closing down of the mortgage account. It is fixed and cannot be changed without your agreement. The fee will be paid on completion out of part of your loan but interest will not be charged on this part of the loan. Part of each monthly payment you make will be used to repay the mortgage account fee so that it is repaid over the term of your mortgage.
Application fee £99 You may need to pay this non-refundable fee if you're buying a new property or moving to a C&G mortgage from another lender. 
Product fee As shown in the Overview tab With some of our mortgage deals there's a product fee to pay, with others there isn't. Usually, there's a choice, and you can get a lower rate in return for paying a fee or no fee and a higher rate. Where a product fee applies, it will be added to your new mortgage. You can then pay the fee off if you want to, or leave it on your mortgage to spread the cost. If you pay it off within 30 days of the start of your mortgage, no interest will be charged on it. If you leave it on your mortgage, interest will be charged on it as part of your main mortgage.
Valuation fee Dependant on property value Payable if you're buying a new property. 
Transfer of funds fee £35 You may need to pay this non-refundable fee for the transfer of money when your mortgage starts if you're buying a property, switching your mortgage from another lender, or are an existing C&G or Lloyds TSB mortgage customer borrowing more.
