Glynis Hobson Co-Ownership with Jane Millar, Progressive Building Society
Progressive Building Society has partnered with Co-Ownership to offer mortgages including a no deposit option.
Customers will be able to borrow 100% of the mortgaged share of the property they aim to buy, with the remaining share being rented from Co-Ownership.
The partnership has been formed in light of the steady growth in house prices in Northern Ireland over the last few years, a move which has made it increasingly difficult for first time buyers to get on the property ladder.
Jane Millar, head of lending and savings at Progressive Building Society, said: “Progressive Building Society are proud to partner with Co-Ownership, helping local people buy their own home. We have worked alongside Co-Ownership for many years and as a locally owned Building Society we are delighted to announce the launch of our no deposit mortgage products.
“These products will provide more opportunities to help local people onto the property ladder, without the need for a deposit.”
And Glynis Hobson, director of customer services at Co-Ownership, said: “We’re delighted that Progressive are bringing these great new products to the market which give local customers more choice if they need Co-Ownership’s help to become a homeowner.
“Mortgage providers offering competitive mortgage products is key for Co-Ownership. We look forward to continuing working together to support local customers becoming homeowners.
The new mortgages are available directly from Progressive, where online mortgage appointments with a dedicated advisor are available on their website, or through a mortgage broker.
