Getting a mortage for a new build

My husband and I have been looking at purchasing a new build in Scotland. We only have enough to put down a 10% deposit. Is it possible to get a 90% LTV mortgage for
a new build in this current climate. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

  • Forgot to mention. We would be looking to do part exchange with our old home so therefore we would
    not be able to take advantage of the
    builders shared equity plan.

    What kind of property is it?

    Assuming it's a house, not a flat, the following lend at 90%;-

    Abbey
    Furness
    Halifax
    LTSB Scotland
    Nationwide
    NatWest
    Northern Rock
    Post Office
    RBS
    Santander
    Scottish BS
    Scottish Widows
    Skipton

    Hope that helps.

  • It's a mid terrace. Thanks for the replies. I didn't realise so many lenders would do 90% due to the fact it is a new build.
