Green additional borrowing

Thinking about making energy efficient improvements to your current home? You could benefit from a lower initial interest rate with our Green Additional Borrowing product.

How it works

If you’re an existing West Brom mortgage customer and plan on borrowing more to make your home more environmentally friendly, we’ll reward you with a lower initial interest rate. To qualify, at least 50% of the amount borrowed must be spent on energy efficient home improvements such as (but not limited to):

  • Retrofit materials eligible for 0% VAT as listed on gov.uk
  • Solar panels
  • Insulation
  • Air or ground source heat pumps
  • Investment in rain water harvestation
  • Window upgrades
  • Upgrading of existing utilities (low energy electricity/ lighting)
  • Pipes and boiler insulation
  • Boiler upgrade
  • Small scale wind turbines
  • Electric car charging stations

Eligibility for our Green Additional Borrowing product will be assessed as part of the application process and we may carry out valuations and checks as part of the process. Exclusions may apply.

Our standard additional borrowing requirements also apply.

Key features

  • A 2 Year Discounted Variable Rate mortgage at a lower initial interest rate when compared to our standard additional borrowing mortgage products
  • You can borrow between £5,000 and £50,000, subject to individual circumstances
  • You can borrow up to 95% Loan to Value (LTV)
  • A £99 additional borrowing fee applies

At the end of the mortgage deal, you will move to a variable interest rate for the remainder of the mortgage term. The actual variable rate applied will be based on the value of your property relative to the outstanding mortgage balance (this is known as the Loan to Value (LTV)). However, this rate will never be higher than the Society’s Standard Variable Rate at that time.

Alternatively, you could switch to a new West Brom mortgage deal, subject to availability and your eligibility at the time.
