Reliance Bank Key Worker Mortgage Product Range

We want to support Key Workers who are looking to purchase or remortgage their own home and for that reason we are launching a Key Worker Mortgage Product range. One of the Key Worker Mortgage Products has a 90% loan-to-value (LTV). We anticipate demand will be high so for that reason this product range could be withdrawn at any time.
