BuildStore Accelerator Mortgage Scheme
Accelerator Makes Builds Happen
Do you dream of building your own home? Think you can’t afford it? Think again – the BuildStore Accelerator Mortgage Scheme has enabled over 15,000 people build their own house.
Accelerator is unique in that it gives you money before each stage of your project starts meaning you have the cash to pay for labour and materials before the work begins.
What’s more, with Accelerator you can borrow up to 95% of the cost of the land and up to 95% of your build cost and your stage payments are not subject to confirmation by a mortgage valuation at each stage (although some lenders reserve the right to ask for an interim valuation later in your project to check on progress). With an arrears mortgage your lender will require a valuer to visit the site at the end of each stage and submit a report to the lender before they will release any money.
Features |
Benefits to you |
|---|---|
Borrow up to 95% of your land and build costs. |
This allows you to get your project underway with only a 5% deposit. |
Stage payments made in advance of each stage of the build. |
Having money when you need it puts you in a stronger negotiating position when buying materials and labour and lessens the risk of workmen leaving the site because they have not been paid. |
Range of lenders and interest rates. |
BuildStore Mortgage Services works with a number of different mortgage lenders, including the Hanley Economic Building Society, Bath Building Society and Melton Mowbray Building Society to ensure you can choose a mortgage type and interest rate to suit your particular circumstances. |
Purchase land with only outline planning permission.. |
Some lenders will only lend on land which has detailed planning permission which can take months to arrange. With BuildStore's Accelerator Mortgage Scheme you can move quickly to secure your ideal plot with only outline planning permission as soon as it becomes available. |
