Couple of items I’ve noted recently: Cambridge Building Society has launched a five-year fixed rate mortgage at 4.19% specifically for large loans of between £500,000 and £2m. The mutual will accept loans of up to £750,000 on an interest-only basis. The five-year fixed is available up to 75% LTV, with an arrangement fee of 0.2% or a minimum of £2,000.
Carole Charter, marketing manager at the Cambridge Building Society, said: "Larger loans are not suitable for everyone, but there are people out there who would benefit from this unique product."
She added: "The Cambridge is committed to offering a range of options for borrowers and the larger loan mortgage is a product that we feel we need to be able to offer our wealthier customers looking to purchase a house in this price range."
Also, the Cambridge Inflation Linked Bond Receives Surge in Interest. All applications for the five year bond must be received by 15th September 2011*. The Cambridge Inflation Linked Bond pays customers a return, at maturity, that tracks the annual rate of inflation, as measured by the Retail Prices Index (RPI), plus a guaranteed 1.00% gross p.a./AER** fixed for five years.
Andy Lucas, Head of Cambridge Direct at The Cambridge Building Society says: “We have seen surge in customer interest following the recent withdrawal of the NS&I index-linked certificate.
“Customers who want to take the opportunity to invest in a product that offers protection against the effects of inflation need to take advantage of the inflation linked products that are left in the market whilst they are still available.”
