Track Record Mortgage for First Time Buyers

10th May 2023

We are looking at recent changes in the First Time Buyer market and Skipton Building Society have launched their new 100% Track Record Mortgage product. Please get in touch as we can also provide access on various other funding options.

For too long, deposits have held back renters from becoming homeowners. With house prices and the cost of living rising, how can people be expected to pay their rent, keep up with bills and save 5 figure sums for deposits?

At Skipton, they believe that needs to change. Which is why they’re putting their money where their mouth is with a brand-new Track Record mortgage – the first of its kind – they will look at a renter’s history of making rental payments, and if they meet affordability criteria, they can access a mortgage without a deposit.

This could be the start of the great shift – turning generation rent into generation homeowner.
