Please visit the Shawbrook Base Rate page to see what the current rate is.
Shawbrook takes its responsibility as a lender seriously so we use a stressed rate when calculating affordability.
We assume an increase to your initial rate, ensuring that, as interest rates rise and as the economy recovers, we are confident that your property will generate sufficient income to cover all of its expenses at that time. As an investment, it is essential the property generates enough income to cover its costs.
Yes. We understand how important it is for you to manage your monthly incomings and outgoings and are happy to help by changing your payment date for you, as long as the change doesn't extend the overall term of your loan.
A second charge mortgage, also known as a ’secured loan’ or 'second mortgage' allows you to borrow money, whilst leaving your existing mortgage in place. A second charge mortgage requires you to provide your home as security. This means we take a legal charge over your property, in the same way a mortgage provider does. This will be removed once the loan is fully repaid.
Customers are at the heart of our business, and it is our priority to offer the best outcome possible for your circumstances. Our team and our brokers, have experience of all kinds of personal lending.
All our second charge mortgages are arranged through independent brokers.
Your mortgage adviser will go through a fact finding process with you. This is to understand your financial needs now and in the future and they will also discuss your current income and expenditure, along with any changes that you may foresee. They will then research and evidence the market, after which they will make a recommendation as to which product would be best suited to your circumstances.
