New first time buyer guide from Britannia

25-Jul-2006

The guide, from Britannia Building Society, offers information to first time buyers on choosing the right home, arranging finances and deciding on the right mortgage.

Britannia's managing director of member business, Tim Franklin, said: "Buying a first property is one of the biggest commitments a person will ever have to make and Britannia wants to help them get it right.

"Our new guide offers a step-by-step approach and covers all the basics including what to look for when viewing properties and the types of mortgages available."

In addition, the building society provides a checklist for first time buyers to work out their expenditure, including upfront fees, bills and living expenses.

Other products recently introduced to help first time buyers include a first time buyer mortgage from Natwest.

The loan helps aspiring homeowners onto the property ladder providing two-year deals with no higher lending charges.
