They come with the Homebuyer solution as standard which includes free valuation plus £250 cashback on completion, helping customers with the upfront costs of purchasing a property.

Santander’s range of 95% LTV NewBuy mortgages on newly built houses and flats are available from the following developers:

  • Barratt Homes (including David Wilson Homes, Ward Homes, & Wilson Bowden)
  • Berkeley (including St George, St James, & St Edward)

The mortgages require a minimum loan size £6,000, with a maximum loan size of £475,000.

“These NewBuy product rate reductions demonstrate Santander’s continued commitment to helping customers get on the housing ladder,” said Phil Cliff, director of Santander Mortgages, Santander.

“Our three-year fixed is now a market leading 4.99% while our five and seven-year fixed remain highly competitive at 5.29%. This reduction in rates coupled with low upfront fees of £99, make our NewBuy mortgage range the best value products available exclusively via the intermediary market.”
