What Is A Keystart Loan?
Anything to do with home loans is a bit daunting, which is understandable as there is just so much to consider. Keystart Loans were created to provide an affordable pathway into home ownership, for those who may otherwise not be able to even think about owning their own property. The major difference between a Keystart Loan and a normal home loan is that Keystart Loans have lower entry costs, meaning you can get into a home of your own a lot sooner than you think.
Entry costs are often the biggest reason that people don’t take the plunge to build their own home, the costs associated with taking out a home loan can be extremely unaffordable. Keystart has addressed this issue by creating low deposit loans, that also have no Lender’s Mortgage Insurance. Keystart is a transitional lender, meaning you can refinance with another lender whenever you are ready.
