A reservation fee may be payable depending on the product selected. Some tracker and fixed rate products are available with or without a non-refundable reservation fee. If you choose the no reservation fee option you will pay a higher rate of interest over the deal period compared to the reservation fee option. If you choose the option with a reservation fee you can pay this when you apply or you can add it to your loan. If you add this fee to your loan you will be charged interest on it during the term of the loan.
If you are taking out a number of products on the same property where reservation fees apply, e.g. a fixed rate mortgage and a further advance on a tracker rate, then only one reservation fee is payable provided the products are taken out simultaneously. If the products with reservation fees are not taken out simultaneously, then the individual reservation fees apply to each product.
There is no reservation fee payable on our fully flexible mortgage - the Base Mortgage Rate.

Redemption charge
If you enter into a new mortgage with Nationwide and subsequently repay your mortgage more than ten years before the natural term, you will pay a charge (currently £90) unless you are taking a new Nationwide mortgage at the same time.
