Find out by getting Approval in Principle in just 15 minutes by either dropping into your nearest branch or calling 1890 500 156 or +353 1 215 1339. You don’t need to provide anything for Mortgage AIP, it’s simply a chat about your finances. We’ll ask you about how much you earn, what loans you have and what type of mortgage you’re looking to switch (i.e. how much you want to borrow and for how long) – this helps us decide how much we can lend you. While it’s not a final approval, this helps us to decide how much we could lend you.
The minimum mortgage amount you can borrow is €40,000. The maximum amount you can borrow depends on several factors such as your income and your capacity to repay your loan.
Our minimum term is 5 years and our maximum term for home mortgages is 35 years. Our maximum term for Buy-to-let mortgages is 25 years.
It’s a requirement of your mortgage to have home insurance and life cover in place for the duration of your mortgage term. Talk to one of our Insurance Advisors in branch or on 1890 818 747 or + 353 1 655 0547 today. This policy can be obtained from a provider other than permanent tsb.
As part of the switching process you will need to provide us with a current valuation of your property completed by a member of the Bank’s valuation panel. You will also need to appoint a solicitor to take care of the legal work involved. However our 2% cash back will go a long way to covering your legal fees!
Property stamp duty is only payable on the purchase of a property and does not apply when switching your mortgage.
These are our new business variable rate products and are structured in terms of the Loan to Value (Level of debt as a percentage of the property value).
They represent a 0.50% reduction on our MVRs for the first 12 months of the mortgage for all Loan to Values up to 80%.
After the initial 12 months the Discounted MVR matures to our MVRs (dependent on the mortgages original LTV). The MVR will be 0.50% above the Discounted MVR.
| LTV Bracket | Discounted MVR Rate |
| Less than or equal to 50% | 3.20% |
| Greater than 50% & less than or equal to 60% | 3.30% |
| Greater than 60% & less than or equal to 70% | 3.40% |
| Greater than 70% & less than or equal to 80% | 3.50% |
After the initial 12 months your Discounted MVR matures to one of our MVRs (dependent on the mortgage LTV at drawdown), which are variable rates for our existing customers.
It's important to remember that Discounted MVRs are variable rates and can increase or decrease. The MVR may vary from time to time without regard to variations in any other interest rate used by permanent tsb.
