MPowered Mortgages cuts five-year fixed rates

MPowered Mortgages has cut five-year fixed residential rates by up to 0.15 per cent with rates beginning from 5.49 per cent.

Rates on its five-year fixed rates with £1,999 fee start from 5.49 per cent, compared to 5.64 per cent previously.

Its five-year fixed rate with a £999 fee has decreased from 5.69 per cent to 5.54 per cent and its fee-free version has decreased from 5.84 per cent to 5.69 per cent.

MPowered Mortgages has extended cashback across its two-year fixed rates with £999 and £1,999 arrangement fee.

Borrowers will be eligible for £1,000 cashback for remortgages and £500 cashback for purchases on loans more than £200,000.

Emma Hollingworth, managing director of mortgages at MPowered Mortgages, said: “Swap rates continue to fall, giving us the opportunity to reduce rates on the remainder of our prime residential product range, following rate reductions on our two and three-year fixes last week.

“Affordability remains a key challenge and it is vital that lenders are doing everything they can to keep rates as affordable as possible throughout this challenging period. That being said, borrowers should ensure they are seeking independent financial advice, to ensure they are getting the most suitable product for them at this time.”

Rates reductions on its five-year fixed product range will apply across product options, including both purchase and remortgage products up to 85 per cent LTV.
