Standard Mortgage Terms

Novi Property Mallorca, in partnership with The Mallorca Mortgage Business, are able to provide a variety of different mortgage and loan products to fit your personal requirements. Whether you are looking for finances for a business investment or you need a mortgage for your holiday home or main residence, will be able to help you. The following features are common amongst most of the loans available:

  • For non-residents loans of up to 80% of the valuation of the property are available although some banks will restrict the borrowing to a percentage of the purchase price. Mortgages on country property are generally limited to 70% of valuation.
  • The length of the mortgage can be up to 50 years although the usual term is up to 30 years.
  • The standard rate of interest is variable but we can also offer fixed rates which are generally higher or a mixture of both fixed and variable rates.
  • Mortgages can be either repayment mortgages (both capital and interest), or Interest only. The Interest only can either be a mixture where the interest is paid over a fixed period of the mortgage with the capital being repaid over the remaining term or for the whole term of the mortgage where the capital is repaid at the end of the term.
  • Loans are available for borrowers up to the age of 75 but can be to an unlimited age.
  • Re-mortgages are available.
  • Loans can be taken out in both an individual or Company name.
  • Self Certification (ie non status) mortgages are available up to 50% of valuation and up to a maximum sum of 550,000€
