Nationwide mortgage - porting?

hi all

i currently have a Nationwide mortgage 2.99% fixed for 4 years at 62% LTV (i'm shared equity)

when i took out my new deal, the advisor said it was portable but i'm not sure if they meant within a similar LTV range.

so i was wondering... can i port this mortgage towards a non shared equity property (which in total would be more like 85-90% LTV)? i've been speaking to my IFA this weekend, and he is not sure so i was going to ring Nationwide tomorrow but thought i'd ask here first in case anyone was particular au fait with this type of thing?

    You should be able to port that rate to the same amount on a new Nationwide mortgage, with the increased borrowing on a new Nationwide deal which will reflect the new LTV.

    thanks Kingstreet - it seemed too good to be true that at least part of my mortgage would still be at a nice rate but happy days if it is!
