Nationwide institutes interest-only cap

Published on

The Nationwide Building Society has changed its policy towards interest-only mortgages.

From today, Nationwide and The Mortgage Works (TMW) are capping their residential interest only loans for new lending at 75% LTV.

Buy-to-let mortgages from TMW are unaffected.

This change in criteria brings the Group’s policy in line with other lenders such as Halifax, which made a similar move last week.
