Just Group has added its green mortgage discount across all of its lifetime mortgage products.
The FTSE 250 retirement firm has also extended the offer to include homes with a C-rated energy performance certificate.
It says customers are now able to request a free energy performance certificate at the application stage (if one doesn’t exist already on the property) and, if eligible, a 10-basis point discount on their lifetime mortgage rate.
The business adds that the extension to the green mortgage discount means homes with a C-rated energy performance certificate will also now be eligible for the discount, alongside properties with A and B ratings.
Just Group managing director, retail, Paul Turner says: “Since 2008, over 10.3 million properties in England and Wales have been registered with an energy performance certificate of A, B or C and we expect energy efficient housing stock to continue growing.
“This improvement in our offering helps us to meet our sustainability goals of reaching net zero by 2050 and halving our emissions by 2030, as our lifetime mortgage portfolio forms part of our Scope 3 emissions.”
