Frequently Asked Questions

What is loan-to-value (LTV)?
It is your mortgage balance divided by your home value, as a percentage. Lower is generally better for borrowing.
How is borrowing power estimated?
Many lenders let you borrow up to about 80% of your home value minus your current balance. This is an estimate; your lender sets the real limit.
Can I use the result as an exact answer?
Treat it as an estimate or check unless the page and the rules that apply to you confirm otherwise. Rounding, fees and personal details can change the final result.
