The lender repriced all its variable rates, which now start from 4.59% for owner occupied and 4.99% for commercial investment. It also introduced a new 70% loan-to-value (LTV) tier, meaning it is now offering mortgages for 60%, 70% and up to 75% LTV.

Rates for the new three-year commercial owner occupied fixes start from 4.69% at 60% LTV, with highest rates set at 5.14% at 75% LTV. Their five-year equivalents start from 4.79% at 60% LTV and go up to 5.24% at 75% LTV.

Commercial investment fixes start at 5.09% for 60% LTV over three years and 5.19% over five. Their rates range up to 5.45% (75% LTV) for the three-year products and 5.64% for their five-year equivalents.

The lender also reduced its commitment fee from 0.50% to 0.25% but stuck with its 1.75% arrangement fee.

Commercial director for mortgages Charles McDowell (pictured) said: “Our latest commercial mortgage refresh provides more choice for businesses, with products available across three LTV tiers. We are pleased to be reducing rates across a range of our commercial investment and commercial owner occupied mortgages, encouraging businesses to invest in their future.”
