Address: Catholic Building Society, 7 Strutton Ground, Westminster, London SW1P 2HY
The Catholic Building Society is an independent ethical mutual Building Society, owned by its Members and run for their long-term benefit.
The Society was formed to help people within a mutual organisation. The Society has provided a safe and secure home for its Members investments for 46 years, whilst offering competitive rates of interest.
They have over £40m of assets and a strong financial position. Their objectives and guiding principles are all focused on helping first-time buyers, many of whom are on low incomes, and to give single women and widows an equal opportunity to buy their own home. In the 1960's this was virtually unheard of.
The principal objective is to provide competitive savings and investment products which offer excellent value for Members. The Accounts include ones which give Members an opportunity to support worthy causes.
Postal bases accounts offering mortgages and investment products.

You and Your Mortgage
The Mortgage Code sets standards of good practice as to how mortgage lenders and intermediaries deal with their customers.
When sourcing your mortgage you should check that your lender or intermediary is registered under the Mortgage Code. More than 150 lenders and 13,000 intermediary firms, covering virtually the entire market, have registered under the Code. If a lender or intermediary fails to meet the standards of the Mortgage Code, and you suffer as a result, you have the right to seek redress under a compulsory complaints process.
You, as a potential mortgage customer, must be given a copy of the leaflet 'You and Your Mortgage' at your first discussion about a mortgage. The leaflet outlines the standards which mortgage lenders and intermediaries have to meet.
