Let’s talk about Barclays Green Mortgages

Whether you’re a landlord or a first-time buyer, we are here to explain our Green Mortgage range to you.

According to Energy Saving Trust, direct and indirect emissions from buildings accounted for 23% of the UK’s total greenhouse gas emissions in 2019.1 Since 2018, we’ve been offering green mortgages to reward our customers for choosing to buy certain new build properties. With more than half the UK population already open to the idea of green mortgages,2 we’ve broken down everything you need to know about our current Green Mortgages range.
