Own New Rate Reducer

 

Own New Rate Reducer

We are excited to have partnered with Own New to bring you Rate Reducer, a new scheme designed to help first time buyers and home movers to access a more affordable mortgage by enabling access to a lower rate in the fixed period on your new Bovis home.

What is Own New Rate Reducer?

Own New Rate Reducer could help enable you to unlock lower mortgage interest rates from a participating lender, over a fixed two- or five-year period, meaning your monthly mortgage payments will be more affordable during that time.

Bovis Homes makes this possible by giving a financial contribution of typically from 3% to Own New who then pass this to your lender (after deducting their commission).

You’ll still own 100% of your home.

 

How does it work?

  • Select one of our high-quality, energy-efficient Bovis Homes to call your own
  • An Own New approved mortgage broker will be able to help determine if Own New’s Rate Reducer is right for you
  • Continue your buying journey with Bovis Homes to achieve 100% home ownership
