Buckinghamshire Building Society has made mortgage rate cuts across its Credit Revive and Credit Restore ranges of up to 0.2% for credit-impaired borrowers.

The reductions apply to a selection of two-year fixed rate products, each with a £999 product fee.

Highlights of the cuts include a reduction from 6.09% to 5.89% in the Credit Revive range up to 85% loan to value (LTV). In the society’s Credit Restore range, there has been a reduction from 6.69% to 6.49% up to 75% LTV.

All cuts are available for purchase or remortgage and offer a maximum loan size of £750,000.

The Credit Revive range is suited to those with a small number of historical credit blips, such as missed payments, defaults or arrears, while Credit Restore caters for more serious or recent events, including county court judgments (CCJs) and active debt management plans.

Both ranges are manually underwritten, with each case assessed individually.
