Definitions for "Cash Back"
Keywords:  reward, incentive, forgo, rebate, spent
This is the arrangement whereby a cash sum of money is repaid to the borrower at the start of the mortgage. The amount of the cash back will vary considerably from lender to lender with the highest amounts being paid where the borrower is willing to forgo any fixed or discounted rate offers and pay the normal variable mortgage rate. Cash back deals are also available in conjunction with some fixed or discounted rates but the amount of the cash back will normally be reduced in these circumstances. If a large cash back is being considered then it could, in some circumstances, be liable to Capital Gains Tax (refer to the lender, your accountant or local tax office for clarification ). The lender will normally impose early redemption penalties if the mortgage is redeemed within the first few years (see Redemption Penalties).
