In what is a first for a major high street lender, Nationwide, Britain’s biggest building society, is allowing first-time buyers to borrow up to six times their income. From Tuesday, it would give new buyers the option of borrowing up to six times their income when taking out a five- or 10-year fixed rate for up to 95% of the property’s value. Lloyds and Halifax already allow new buyers to take out loans worth up to 5.5 times their household annual income. Traditionally the typical maximum for how much someone could borrow was 4.5 times their annual income. If you are a first-time buyer we want to hear from you. What do you think of Nationwide’s offer?
