Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.FORMER home owners now in rented accommodation who are hoping to get back into the housing market are being offered discounted mortgages from Nationwide Building Society.
Homebuyers who took out their last mortgage with Nationwide and are now renting can claim a discount of one percentage point, while people who borrowed from another lender are entitled to a discount of 0.5 points for the first year. All borrowers are entitled to a year's free Mortgage Payment Cover.
Nationwide sees the package as ideal for those who choose to rent while they find a new house. The package was launched after feedback from borrowers who found they were unable to take advantage of discounts while renting.
The society stresses that it would be unlikely for the package to be offered to people whose homes had been repossessed.
