Our arrangement fee explaned
As with many financial services there are costs involved in the setting up of the product.
By charging an arrangement fee we can offer;

- more competitive rates
Part of the arrangement fee covers our costs, which include;
- property valuations
- surveys
- legal costs
- administration and overheads
- land registration costs
- credit searches
What is our fee and how is it calculated?
Our arrangement fee is £995, we will add it to your loan and you will be charged interest on it.
* Applicants seeking a homeowner loan are more likely to be accepted although typical APR's may vary.
