Santander has launched a mortgage application which enables customers to quickly and simply remortgage online. The new service could take applicants as little as 30 minutes to complete and provides them with an instant decision on their mortgage. The use of straightforward questions and design make it easy to apply for a mortgage online.

Customers can save their application and resume at a time convenient to them, as well being able to choose from Santander’s full mortgage range. Any documents that are required to support the application can be uploaded immediately and customers are kept updated on the progress of their application by email.

Customers looking to remortgage can access exclusive, competitive rates through the tool:

  • 60 per cent loan to value (LTV) 2 year fixed 1.23 per cent with a £995 product fee
     
  • 60 per cent LTV 5 year fixed 1.99 per cent, with a £995 product fee

Miguel Sard, Managing Director of Mortgages at Santander said: “Today, more and more is being done online. From small things like ordering shopping to bigger things like booking flights. When it comes to managing your mortgage, it shouldn’t be any different. We know that many people already look around for the best deals online, this tool takes it a step further, we are empowering customers to secure their mortgage online, at a time and place that suits them.

“For customers who know they want to remortgage and have found the deal that works for them, it’s a great solution. If customers have any questions or need support, we’re always on hand to help them. Today, this is a remortgage only solution. However, at a later date we hope to introduce further functionality to the tool, enabling other customers to apply online.”
