Bank of Ireland is the latest lender to launch into the Joint Borrower Sole Proprietor mortgage market.

The bank has introduced two “First Start” products available for mortgages up to £500,000 and 95% loan-to-value.

As part of the criteria, clients can choose if the property is owned by the applicant(s) or jointly by the applicant(s) and the sponsor.

A sponsor must be a close relative such as a parent or step-parent of any applicant that will reside in the property, who is added as a co-borrower.

Aaron Strutt, product director at Trinity Financial, says: “The highest earning applicant must have an annual income of at least £20,000 to qualify.  Also, the sponsor’s minimum income must be at least £30,000 and they must own a residential property in the UK.”

“Bank of Ireland’s rates are more expensive than the other lenders offering this niche piece of criteria. The is no arrangement fee and £500 cashback paid on completion.”

If the property will be owned in the name of the applicant(s) only, then a condition of the mortgage offer states the sponsor must receive independent legal advice before completion of the purchase.

To secure a Joint Borrower Sole Proprietor mortgage, call Trinity on 020 7016 0790.
