Abacus unveils two-year discounts

The deals include an additional 0.35% discount from the core range offered by Future. Rates start from 6.25% and come with Free Valuation, Free Legal’s, no HLC and no upfront fees. Abacus will also accept remortgages from non-conforming lenders with recent and existing current arrears.

This demonstrates that brokers and customers have a strong need for this type of product. This is a further example of how Abacus provides brokers with the products they need and with the recent expansion of Abacus and it’s service enhancements, the level of service that brokers deserve.”
