According to the lender, the new offer will also give eligible borrowers the added support of a dedicated mortgage adviser, while remortgagers have access to Halifax’s switcher service that will help take care of the rest and make the process as hassle-free as possible.
Halifax will also cover basic legal fees and standard property valuation costs for remortgagers.
Chris Gowland, Mortgages Director at Halifax, said: “Buying your first property or moving can be overwhelming as additional costs involved in that initial moving period to turn it your house into a ‘home’ can sometimes catch us off guard. Giving our customers a bit of extra cash to go towards those essentials can help alleviate some of the moving stress and help make it easier to celebrate this new milestone.”
