Keystone’s switch and fix product which allows landlords on a variable rate to move onto a fixed rate at no cost is now priced at 5.84 per cent.
Elise Coole, managing director of Keystone Property Finance, said: “One of the things we pride ourselves on at Keystone is our ability to react quickly to market developments to ensure our range remains competitive.
“Over the past few weeks, the market has stabilised and swap rates have rolled back, so we have taken the opportunity to pass on those lower funding costs to brokers and their clients.”
She said the lender would continue to monitor markets and quickly make further rate cuts if conditions allow.
Coole added: “In the meantime, we are confident we have a competitive and varied range of products that will suit the needs of most landlords.”
