Arrangement Fee and Maximum Borrowing
Options

Is the arrangement fee included in the maximum amount you can borrow? Or can I borrow my max plus arrangement fee?
So if the max I can borrow is £100,000 can I add the £1495 arrangement fee on top? So my mortgage would be £101,495?

I believe it would vary from lender to lender, in most cases though the max borrowing would include the fee as you will have to pay that back plus interestMortgage co-ordinator for a building society
I carry out affordability assessments for new and existing customers.
I update customers during the application when they call, letting them know where things are at.
I also answer existing mortgage queries.0 -

It was like this for me. Max borrowing plus the arrangement fee. So the total borrowed amount is slightly higher than my max borrowing.0 -
