PRIVATE BANK MORTGAGES LONDON
London FS work with Private Banks and High Net Worth Individuals with structuring bespoke and unique lending facilities.
WHO ARE PRIVATE BANK MORTGAGES FOR?
A Private bank mortgage is often well-suited to high net worth borrowers.
Private Banks and private lenders will take a view on a client’s more complex income structure and assess the affordability of the mortgage by looking at a wider range of factors, and assessing each case on individual circumstances rather than a standard approach provided by high street lenders.
Many Private Banks will have a minimum lending amount of £1m, with some of the Private Banks also requiring clients to deposit funds with them.
The private banking world is becoming a popular choice for high net worth clients, for mortgages and loans due to the flexibility they offer when looking at property finance.
Some High Street lenders also have a Private Bank as part of their group structure.
What can a private bank mortgage be used for?
Mortgages and Loans from Private Banks and Private mortgage lenders are mainly used for property purchase or re-mortgage residential property or an investment portfolio.
Lending can be obtained for:
- Purchase of residential property overseas (where borrowing is secured by UK property)
- Improvements to the main residence or second home

- Investment properties options

Lending Criteria for Private Bank Mortgages
Private banks will not have set lending criteria, unlike high street banks and mortgage lenders.
Each mortgage is assessed on it own merits.

Typically they will have a minimum loan size of £1m and can consider large mortgage amounts, offering bespoke deals.
Will my Mortgage or Loan be secured on my property?
Private Banks will require security over a property. In England and Wales this is done by you granting a Mortgage Deed in the lenders favour over the property and in Scotland this is done by you granting a Standard Security in the private banks favour over the property.
The Mortgage Deed and the Standard Security are legal documents which create security over the property for all amounts you The Private Bank now or in the future.
Our Loan Products can also be secured by cash deposits or offered on an unsecured basis. Other security types are accepted where the purpose of the borrowing is not to acquire or retain property.

Will I need AUM for a mortgage with a Private Bank?
Assets under management (AUM) can be requested by some of the Private Banks to obtain the their best terms. For many Private banks AUM is a prerequisite condition to their lending. For example, this can be through savings lodged with the bank (generally this is a % of the loan facility).
However in the current climate and in such a competitive market space, LondonFS have access to Private Banks that do not require AUM and still offer very competitive terms.

They will go through in detail your financial position and income to get a full understanding of the bigger picture about you as a client.
