Tariff of Mortgage Charges
Our tariff of charges (shown below) reflects the initiative's good practice principles. This same document is used across the industry to help customers compare mortgages.
You will pay these charges before your first monthly payment
| Name of charge | What this charge is for | How much is the charge? |
| Application fee | Assessing and processing your application (even if your application is unsuccessful or you withdraw it). | £0 (£199 - £250 for porting cases) This fee is not refundable |
| Funds transfer fee | Electronically transferring the mortgage funds to you or your solicitor. | £8 |
| Legal fee | You will normally instruct a solicitor to act on your behalf in connection with your home purchase transaction. You may be required to pay their legal fees and costs as part of their work on your behalf. These fees/costs are normally charged by the solicitor, directly to you unless we tell you that we will contribute to the legal costs as part of your product deal. |
This may vary. Please refer to your mortgage documents that were issued at offer stage. Please contact your solicitor for fee details. |
| Product fee | This is charged on some mortgages as part of the deal. It can be paid up-front or added to the total mortgage amount. If you add it to your mortgage, you'll pay interest on it at the same rate as the rest of your borrowing. It might be a flat fee, or a percentage of the loan amount. | This may vary. Please refer to your mortgage illustration. This fee is only refundable when the application doesn’t complete. |
| Valuation fee | The lender’s valuation report, which is used to calculate how much it will lend you. This is separate from any valuation or survey of the property you might want to commission. There are other homebuyers or structural survey options available to you at a cost and there may be different approaches in different parts of the UK. |
We'll cover the cost of one mortgage valuation. If you require any additional valuations for any reason, for example if you change the property being purchased during the application, subsequent valuations will incur a fee. Please refer to your mortgage illustration for more information. |
You will pay these charges if you change your mortgage

Change of parties administration fee |
Our administrative costs of adding or removing someone (a 'party') from the mortgage. This will show on your mortgage documents at offer stage as 'administration fee'. |
£100 |
| Additional lending valuation fee | This may be charged when applying for additional lending to determine whether the property continues to provide good security for the loan. | This may vary. Please refer to your mortgage Illustration. |
You will pay these charges if you are unable to pay your mortgage
| Unpaid ground rent | Leasehold properties only. If the agreed ground rent or other required charged under the lease is not paid, we’ll investigate any claim made by the freeholder and may settle the outstanding amount by adding the amount to your mortgage account. A fee is charged to cover the work involved in processing this investigation. | £50 |
You will pay these charges if you are ending your mortgage term
Early Repayment Charge (ending your mortgage) |
You may be charged this if you repay your mortgage in full before the mortgage term ends.
|
This may vary. Please refer to your mortgage illustration. |
Mortgage exit |
You may have to pay this if: - Your mortgage term comes to an end; - You transfer the loan to another lender; or - Transfer borrowing from one property to another.
You may be charged a separate fee by your solicitor or licensed or qualified conveyancer for their work relating to redemption of the mortgage and discharge of the security. |
This may vary. Please refer to your mortgage illustration.
