Mark Bullard, head of sales at NatWest Intermediary Solutions, said: “There is a growing demand from intermediaries’ clients to stabilise their mortgage payments over a five year period, so I am expecting that our new sub-3% deal will prove to be popular. And, by adding in the 70% LTV deals, we have extended the choice of LTVs so that every 5% incremental step is covered from 60%-80%.

“We offer a huge choice of mortgage deals, specifically for intermediaries, to account for the different types of clients they are dealing with. We are continuing to be well supported by brokers for our recently launched Main Bank and Current Account ranges, with around a quarter of all applications being for these deals.”
