Green Fixed Rate
For higher energy rated homes, we are offering our lowest fixed rate of interest.
Fixed Rate
A fixed rate mortgage has a rate of interest which doesn’t change for a set period of time, so you know exactly how much you pay every month.
Variable Rate
A variable rate mortgage has a rate of interest which can change.

Get Approval in Principle
Once you have your deposit and have given us your information we will give you an idea of how much you can borrow. We call this Approval in Principle, which means you are one step away from getting the money to buy your new home. It’s not the formal contract, not just yet, but it means you can go house hunting and it stays valid for 12 months.
Log in to MyMortgage web app
With the MyMortgage app, we’ll make the next steps as easy as we can for you. You can manage your application on your personal device, in your own time.
Find your home & complete your application
Once you’ve found your new home and made an offer, we’ll need to know the property details and the name of your solicitor to finalise your mortgage application. We will also need a Valuation Report on the home and show that you have mortgage protection and home insurance in place.
Mortgage Drawdown
When all conditions of the mortgage have been met we will send a letter of offer to you and your solicitor, once reviewed and you are happy with the contract, you should both sign the contract and return it to AIB. Once all is in order your solicitor will drawdown your mortgage funds on your behalf.
