Duncan Pownall, mortgage development manager for Bradford & Bingley, comments: "This new fixed rate deal is excellent for both remortgagers and purchasers preferring payment security. As well as a highly competitive initial rate of 4.28%, it also benefits from having a refunded valuation fee and either free legals for remortgagers or £250 cashback for purchasers. Indeed taking into account not only the rate but also the arrangement fee, this is the best two-year fixed rate remortgage product on the market."
