The interest-bearing monthly instalments of your loan, i.e. the instalments gradually repaying both interest and principal, are paid automatically by standing order through this account.
Early loan repayment
You may repay your loan at any time without any charges, if you have chosen a floating or fixed rate.

- Your income.
- Your other liabilities and living costs.
- Any collaterals.

What is a guarantor and when do I need one for my mortgage loan?
The guarantor is a person who agrees to take on the loan repayment, in case you are unable to. They co-sign the loan agreement and have the same obligations as you.

- The total amount of your loan instalment and other liabilities exceeds a certain percentage of your income.
- You are taking out a loan to construct, repair or renovate a home with owners that have enjoyment over the property. In that case, the other owners have to sign as guarantors to your loan.
