Shared Ownership Mortgage

5
We applied with Newbury to purchase our first home through the shared ownership scheme. Angela was absolutely fantastic in helping us ahead of the application and next steps we could expect as FTBs. She allayed any concerns we had in applying for a mortgage and made the process as smooth and stress-free as possible. The underwriting was fantastic and we received an offer on a product 9 working days after application. Correspondence has been quick and friendly. I would recommend Newbury to any one looking for a Shared Ownership mortgage. Thank you! Reviewed on: 30th October 2020
Reply from Newbury Building Society Hi Elinor, thank you so much for taking the time to leave feedback and for your kind words. We are so pleased your experience was so hassle free and we will be sure to share your comments with Angela and our Underwriting team who will be thrilled to hear them. You are very welcome and Happy new home! Response date: 30th October 2020
