More mortgage customers can now borrow up to six times income, says Nationwide
Nationwide raises borrowing limits by up to £50,000 after regulatory changes, supporting a 57% rise in high loan-to-income mortgages in 2025, the lender said.
- Nationwide Building Society announced it will lend up to six times income to home movers and customers remortgaging, up to 95% loan-to-value , extending high loan-to-income lending beyond first-time buyers.
- Regulatory changes last year unlocked wider lending, prompting Nationwide's 57% increase in 2025 first-time buyer mortgages at or above five times income and a five-fold rise borrowing between 5.5 and six times income.
- To qualify, new customers must have minimum annual incomes of 75,000 for sole applicants or 100,000 for joint applications, with borrowing limits increasing from 412,500 to 450,000 and 550,000 to 600,000 respectively.
- Helping Hand remains available only to first-time buyers, while the announcement means Nationwide extends six times income support to home movers and remortgagers, targeting borrowers limited by income multiples.
- With the right advice, borrowers can use Nationwide's 6.5 times income up to 95% LTV flexibility to move sooner, securing deals that meet immediate and long-term needs as mortgage advisers adapt.
