Since you only need to have a 5% deposit, 95% LTV mortgages are very popular with first time buyers. The advantage to these is that they tend to have better interest rates than 100% LTV mortgages. However, it’s still important to shop around to ensure that you are getting the best deal for your needs.
Before you apply for a mortgage it's important to check your credit score.
95% LTV mortgage deals are those where you can lay down a 5% deposit on the property you intend to purchase – with the lender providing the remaining 95% of the total cost. The LTV element refers to Loan-To-Value – hence 95% LTV mortgages are where the lender is advancing 95% of the house purchase price.
Second charge mortgages are secured loans taken out against the equity available in your current home.
