Across five-year fixed product transfers, rates have been reduced by up to 0.5 per cent while 10-year fixed rates have been cut by up to 0.8 per cent.
The lender has also introduced new build products for shared ownership, first-time buyers and house purchases. They are all five-year fixed rates up to 85 per cent LTV and rates vary from 1.64 per cent for a 0 to 60 per cent LTV mortgage, and up to 2.74 per cent for an 80 to 85 per cent LTV deal.
