Tesco Bank offers two-year 70% LTV fix at 1.99%
Tesco Bank has cut rates across its two- and three-year mortgage range while raising rates on its five-year products.
The supermarket giant will now offer a two-year fix at 70% LTV for 1.99%, with a £1,300 product fee and £195 booking fee, while the low-fee equivalent is on offer at 2.39%.
However, the lender has upped rates across all its five-year products with Tesco’s headline 70% LTV product jumping from 2.79% to 2.99%.
Other lenders operating in the sub-2% space at 70% LTV include Nationwide, which offers a 1.89% rate to existing customers, and the Post Office which offers a direct product at 1.98% up to 75%.
David McCreadie, managing director at Tesco Bank, said: “Today’s rate changes illustrate our commitment to continually offer customers a strong choice of products from a highly competitive range.
“The new range includes some great products including our most competitive 85% LTV mortgage yet.”
