What is a Green Mortgage?
Green mortgages are a special type of mortgage offered by some banks and building societies to homeowners buying an energy efficient, environment friendly home.
Some lenders, such as NatWest, Halifax, Barclays, Virgin Money or Nationwide will reward you with a lower interest rate, cashback, or larger loans if your home is energy efficient.
Each lender will have its own criteria for a green mortgage, but an EPC rating of A or B on the house you are buying tends to be the main condition they are looking for.
