Find your ideal mortgage
The first step when looking for your first home is working out what you think you can afford . You can do this by using our budget planner.
Working out what you can afford to borrow can be tricky so for advice on your options give us a call on 0800 220 568.
The amount you are contributing or ‘putting down’ towards the property is known as the deposit. Once you know the size of your deposit you can work out your loan to value (LTV) by using the calculator below. Once you've done this you can decide which mortgage products may be suitable for you. You can then get a idea of the monthly repayments by using our mortgage calculator.
For example, if you are able to put down a 20% deposit that means you need a mortgage that is 80% LTV.
