Claire Askham (pictured), head of mortgage sales at Buckinghamshire Building Society, said: “We’re delighted to reduce rates across our mortgage range, ensuring we deliver ever-greater value to brokers and their clients.

“Applying these cuts across such a wide range of products means that brokers have more attractive options for their clients, whether they are first-time buyers, landlords, later life borrowers or expats. At a time when price really matters, this is sure to be a welcome move.

“Combined with our human approach to underwriting, where each case is assessed on individual circumstances, Buckinghamshire Building Society continues to stand out from the competition in delivering accessible, affordable mortgage products.”

The firm recently added two five-year fixed rates to its residential and BTL range and increased its LTV boundaries.
