"By increasing our maximum LTV for lending on new build houses, we’re able to provide our broker partners with a greater number of options and more flexibility for their clients."

Newcastle for Intermediaries has increased the maximum LTV for new build houses to 95%.
The change means new build buyers can now secure a Newcastle Building Society mortgage with a 5% deposit.
Included as part of the new proposition is a 5.48% five-year fixed rate at 95% LTV, available with no product fees and a free standard valuation.
The 95% LTV products are available for both house purchase and remortgage and offer up to 10% overpayments.
Franco Di Pietro, head of intermediary mortgages at Newcastle Building Society, said: “We understand that achieving the dream of homeownership remains a challenge, that’s why we’re committed to supporting as many borrowers as possible in getting a foot on the property ladder or moving onwards to their next home.
