Newcastle BS adds 10-year fixed rates

Newcastle Building Society has brought out a range of 10-year fixed rates following an “increase in consumer demand for longer-term options”.

The range includes products up to 80, 90 and 95 per cent loan to value (LTV).

A 10-year fixed at 6.05 per cent is available up to a maximum LTV of 95 per cent with a product fee of £999 and 10 per cent overpayments per annum are permitted.

There is also a 10-year fixed rate at 6.15 per cent up to 95 per cent LTV with no product fees, free standard valuation and £200 cashback.

Franco Di Pietro, head of intermediaries at Newcastle Building Society, said: “We’re always adapting our range to meet the demands of the market and, as borrowers look to safeguard their monthly mortgage repayments over the longer-term, our attractive range of 10 year fixed-rate products provide additional options and flexibility to meet the requirements of brokers and their clients.

“Not only will this range provide borrowers looking for a longer-term fix with greater choice and increased payment certainty, but our 6.05% rate provides better value to those particularly concerned about the growing pressures on household finances.”
