Accord Mortgages: ‘Passing on further value to brokers’
Aidan Smith, buy-to-let mortgage manager at Accord Mortgages, said: “The markets have responded very positively to pre-Christmas inflation data which showed this key cost index was falling faster than the government predicted, and the Bank of England’s efforts to control it are working.
“This has given us a welcome opportunity to pass on further value to brokers and their clients through substantial rate cuts across our range, including a market leader and some very competitive other options.
“We will continue to closely monitor market trends with a view to taking all possible opportunities to support brokers and landlords as the year unfolds.”
