Lenders reduce LTV to avoid "rubbish"

FT: UK lenders steer away from 100% mortgages

Norwich and Peterborough has now reduced its maximum loan-to-value from 100 per cent to 90 per cent. Matthew Bullock, chief executive, said: “Anyone out there with a 100 per cent offering will get all the worst propositions coming to them – you’ll get all the rubbish. People will say ‘they’re still in the market, let’s go to them’. They wouldn’t get through our filters, but we’d still have to process them.”
