Platform launches record low two-year fixed rate
Platform has cut its two-year fixed rate from its previous deal of 1.64% to 1.59% for loans up to 60% loan-to-value (LTV) with an arrangement fee of £999.
It has also made further reductions of up to 0.40% across its residential range of two, three and five-year fixes.

Stuart Beattie, head of mortgages at Platform (pictured), said: “We started the year with Platform’s lowest ever two-year fixed rate and now we’ve made our lowest rate even lower. We are committed to keeping a constant eye on the market to ensure we continue to offer a great choice of competitive products to brokers and their clients.”
Other changes to Platform’s range include:
