Extensive pros and cons
Below are the detailed pros and cons:
Pros
- 100% penalty-free repayment with your own resources.
- When you reach a lower risk class, the interest rate automatically decreases.
- Knowledge migrants can borrow up to 100% of the market value in mortgage loans that meet NHG standards.
- The maximum mortgage for entrepreneurs is determined using the 1-2-3 method: it is often possible to borrow more.
- Starting entrepreneurs who have been active for 12 months can get a mortgage with NHG.
- Income of a doctor in training or PhD candidate is equated with income from permanent employment.
- Under certain conditions it is possible to make a consumer withdrawal of up to a maximum of 90% of the surplus value.
- It is possible to borrow more via Energy Savings Budget (EBB) and Energy Saving Facilities (EBV).
- Under certain conditions it is possible to include rental income when calculating the maximum mortgage.
- No employer’s statement is required, because the income can be determined via the UWV Insurance Notice. This is reviewed. This is disadvantageous if the income is currently higher or if a wage increase is coming.
Cons
- It is not yet a trusted provider with a long history, such as ABN AMRO, Rabobank and ING.
- No competitive interest rates for short fixed interest periods
