Coventry Building Society

You have arrived at Loan-Seeker.co.uk because you may be looking for a Coventry Building Society loan or a Coventry mortgage product. This article is provided as a review of the Coventry Building Society and the loans and mortgages it offers.

A Brief History of the Coventry Building Society

The origins of the Coventry Building Society go back to the formation of the Coventry Permanent Economic Building Society which was formed in 1884. In 1939, the Coventry Permanent Economic Building Society (or the Economic as it became known) was the largest asset holding building society in the UK. Between the 1970s-1980s a series of mergers further advanced the Coventry’s holdings but in 1983 the Economic merged with the Coventry Provident to form the Coventry Building Society.

Coventry Building Society Loans and Mortgages

The Coventry offers a range of different mortgages that regularly win industry awards: first time buyer mortgages, remortgages or mortgages for moving home. In general the Coventry requires mortgage applicants to be a permanent employees or have been self employed for more than 2 years, over the age of 18 years, and an EU citizen. In order to apply for any Coventry Building Society mortgage or Coventry remortgage you should not have CCJ, or been declared bankrupt or had mortgage arrears in the past. Loan-Seeker.co.uk does not require such good credit guarantees. We have many lenders in our lender panel that welcome bad credit mortgage AND bad credit remortgage applications.

You can also borrow money for other purposes with Coventry secured and unsecured loans, for homeowners and tenants respectively. Unlike Loan-Seeker.co.uk, Coventry Building Society loans applicants must have a good payment history. They must also be a UK resident over the age of 21 years and be able to pay the loan off by the time they reach 75 years of age.

As the Coventry is a mutual building society it is owned by its members, and although it is not a bank, the Coventry Building Society offers other financial services more commonly associated with banks, such as savings account and current account schemes and different types of insurance.
