We are continuing to offer our two year fixed rate priced at 4.24 per cent which is an extremely attractive rate for those who want short term security.

“Our FeeSaver deals will suit those who want to move their mortgage for free - they include no product fee, a free valuation and remortgage customers can opt for free legals. This is ideal for first-time buyers or those who want to keep their up-front costs to a minimum but still benefit from budgetary certainty in their monthly mortgage payments.”
