Are you looking for a loan to buy, build, or renovate your home, but you don't want to worry about changing interest rates? Then have a look at our fixed-rate mortgage loan: your monthly payments will remain the same throughout the term of the loan, even if interest rates go up. Perfect for periods of low interest rates. 

You can pay down your mortgage either directly or indirectly.

Direct repayment

With the direct repayment option, you make regular mortgage payments to BCV. These payments will be applied to the loan principal and interest, and your overall mortgage debt will decrease over time. However, your tax charge will increase every year since you can deduct only the interest payments.

 

Indirect repayment

With the indirect repayment option, instead of making mortgage payments directly to BCV, you put the money into a third-pillar retirement account that you pledge to BCV. This option offers some tax advantages: you can deduct the payments made to your retirement account from your taxable income; and you maximize the amount of your tax-deductible mortgage debt.

 

Your mortgage loan will cover up to 80% of the purchase price of your new home if it’s a primary residence, or up to 65% if it’s a secondary residence. That means you need to provide a downpayment of at least 20% or 35%, respectively. The money can come from existing cash assets or from your second- or third-pillar funds.

You can select a term of two to ten years for your mortgage loan. The loan contract can be renewed at the end of each term for the same or a different term, or you can switch to a different interest-rate agreement.

You can terminate your mortgage loan before the term is up, but you will have to pay an early repayment fee. The amount of the fee will take into account how much time is left in the contract and the difference between the interest rate on your mortgage and the market interest rate when you terminate it.

When you sign your loan contract, you can choose between the direct and indirect repayment methods. Payments are made quarterly.

The ideal mortgage financing package often consists of a custom-tailored combination of fixed-rate and variable-rate loans with different terms. We will work closely with you to determine the solution that best meets your needs.
