Review of the Bath Building Society, Mortgages:

Buy for Uni mortgage

We applied for a niche product, a Buy for Uni mortgage, which is only offered by 3 lenders. In fact, of the 3, the Bath BS was the only one that could meet all our criteria. Excellent service from start to finish with supportive and informative advice from Tim Randell. The application form was a little old fashioned, completed in pen and posted back! But in reality it was no problem. It was processed quickly and the offer made without any real delays. Reviewed on: 28th June 2024

First, it's very slow. Many last minute surprises

First, it's slow, very slow. Next dont get your hopes up. Everything seemed great (but slow). Finally we received the offer long after we hoped to exchange. The offer contained a number of demands that contradicted the information supplied in the application, literally impossible & impractical demands. So we are now having to start the entire process again. Find a new property, make a fresh application, etc. It would have been better if they had suggested that it's riverside location could raise problems rather than wait months to be congratulated with impossible demands. If you wanted to say No to the property just say so Don't say Yes and then ask the impossible like no site fees for a house on a private road and insist on preferential treatment on non-allacoted parking. Numpties! Even the surveyor got the house age wrong by 20 years. They also requested 50% more charge against my parents property than discussed during the application. As a first time buyer, this couldn't have been disheartening. Reviewed on: 31st March 2025
