Got some questions?
You can ask us whatever you want to know about mortgages
Things may have changed since you last got your mortgage – Central Bank Rules will now come into play, for instance. So how much you can borrow will be based on your income, your house price, and what you can afford.
You can borrow a maximum of 90% of the value of the property (this percentage is known as the LTV, or Loan to Value of your home). Yep, that means you’ll need a 10% deposit.
The amount you can borrow also depends on what you can comfortably afford to repay monthly, this typically shouldn’t exceed 35% of your disposable income. It’s that comfort cushion. Why not use our mortgage calculator to see what you can afford?
We take it you’re familiar with either a fixed or variable mortgage interest rate at this stage.
But times have changed – and rates have changed along with them. See a full listing of our variable and fixed interest rates, and our mortgage advisors would be more than happy to guide you.
If you take out a mortgage with a fixed rate of at least one year and decide to repay all or part of it early, if you change to a variable interest rate, or, if you change to another fixed interest rate, we may charge you an early breakage fee. You can find information about how we calculate and when we charge this early breakage charge by clicking on Mortgages Regulatory Information and then selecting ‘Our mortgage interest rate options’.
When you buy your new home, you may also need cash to fund additional costs such as:
Valuation fee (you will need to use a valuer from the EBS Residential Mortgage Valuers panel)
Legal fees for your solicitor
Surveyor fees to look over the house before you buy
Stamp duty. Log on to revenue.ie for the latest stamp duty rates
Possible repairs and decoration costs on your new home
Storage & moving fees.
