Moving home, but not porting

An existing Nationwide mortgage borrower, who is moving to a new property, can redeem their current mortgage in favour of another Nationwide mortgage product. They need to pay any Early Repayment Charges (ERC) that applies to the current mortgage (unless they are within the last three months of their current product deal ERC period).

We can’t accept purchase applications from existing borrowers moving home who intend to remortgage their existing property as a Buy to Let, unless the new lender will be The Mortgage Works. The existing Nationwide mortgage can’t be transferred to any other lender.

To request a permission to let form, your client can call the Mortgage Servicing team on 0345 730 20 11.

A 0.5% loading will be added to their existing interest rate where they're on a fixed or tracker rate product.

Where Consent to Let has been approved, your client won't be able to:

  • Take any additional borrowing on that property.
  • Take a new product while on the standard variable rate (SVR).
  • Change the repayment method or
  • amend the term.

Overpayments

If your client(s) make mortgage payments exceeding the contracted monthly amounts, these overpayments will form an 'Overpayment Reserve'.
