Bermuda Government Mortgage Guarantee Programme
Phase 2

The second phase of the programme will continue to focus on financing for Bermudian first time home owners, and will allow public officers to transfer their mortgages from their existing bank to BCB. The details provided below are a guide and all loans are subject to BCB Credit Policies, requirements and approval.
